The Curse of El Dorado (Abridged)
Concept: Embark with a treasure map to El Dorado, guiding adventurers through the lush, untamed jungles of Colombia on a hex crawl to uncover the legendary City of Gold. As they delve into the city's ancient secrets, players can choose to unravel its cursed history or solely amass the fabled treasure. Yet, an insidious curse lies in wait, gradually taking hold of their minds. Eventually, they must confront the malevolent force of The Blood Red Gold of El Dorado, realizing that their obsession with the treasure may come at a perilous cost.
Content: An Adventure for a more seasoned Pirate Crew, replete with Maps both keyed and not, and a large variety of locales to explore. Intended for an extended stay this Hex Crawl carries a great deal of meat on its bones.
Writing: This Adventure is well written and easy to adapt to any existing Campaign and is blessedly HyperLinked if you are you using the PDF.
Art/design: Perhaps the sole shortfall of this offering is the aesthetic value of its layout. Of particular note is a remarkable Hex Map of the area that seems to be unfortunately 'squished' to fit the page. Other than that a rather plain font choice, while legible, is a bit jarring an experience in a Pirate Borg product. However the artwork itself is excellent on most every count.
Usability: This Adventure would be an excellent locale to explore for any properly experienced group of Pirates. Intended for a longer stay and more of an overland adventure than is typical of Pirate Borg. With a little effort to flesh out some of the random locations the Map alone would make this an must have.
