Reiner Knizia is a well-known name in the board game world. A prolific designer with some of the best games ever made coming from his huge brain. The Quest for El Dorado is a racing game that uses the card-based mechanic of deck-building.
In a deck-building game players all start with the same hand of basic cards, that they improve throughout the game - leading to drastically different decks between players. The fun comes from reading the situation of the game and building a deck that efficiently deals with it.
Your deck in El Dorado will do one of three things:
- Move you across terrain.
- Buy new cards.
- Activate an additional power.
To move you need to play a card with the same terrain and a power rating that is equal or higher than the hex you wish to enter. Terrain types are jungle, water, and gold(!) but there are also special spaces that require you to discard any card you play or even remove it from the game. If you decide instead to improve your deck you can use cards to buy from the market. Gold cards are worth their power, and every other card is worth half a gold.
Purple cards introduce powerful actions, such as moving onto any hex or drawing more cards, which can be incredibly useful. However, don't be drawn in too far by shiny upgrades, as this is a race and you still need to move! The Tracks are made from modular double-sided boards which gives you an array of races to create and try, with a guide to how to get the best experience from the game.
El Dorado straddles the line between an approachable family game and an enjoyable game night game with ease. It is simple enough for younger players but with enough options to keep hardened gamers involved!
