Adjust hex size and layout dynamically to fit any device screen.

Visualize your board before you play — perfect for in-person or online Catan sessions.

🎯 Analyze Resource Probabilities

Every good Catan player knows the key to victory is resource diversity and frequency.
Hexplorer’s built-in Probability Calculator helps you identify which tiles give you the best odds of producing resources based on standard dice roll distributions.

Select up to three resource numbers (2–6, 8–12).

Instantly calculate your overall production score.

See your result categorized as:
Highly Occurable 🔥, Very Good 👍, Moderate 😐, Risky ⚠️, or Very Rare ❌.

Understand how covering more resource types improves your total efficiency.

Each score is based on actual dice roll probabilities, combining the number of resources you cover and which numbers those resources represent.
In short: better coverage + better numbers = smarter strategy.
