The Pioneer Town is a town that can be created by the player in the Sony PlayStation version of Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen and other remakes following.

It's started by Hank Hoffman Jr. after he leaves The Hero and party to apprentice under Conrad Hilton and begins to want to develop a town of his own. It is built in the area formerly occupied by the Desert Bazaar.

Nintendo DS version[edit]

After his apprenticeship with Conrad Hilton in Mintos, Hank Hoffman Jr. asks The Hero to look around the world to invite people to help in making the barren waste into a town. To start this side quest go to the "town" that is where the Desert Bazaar, which will be renamed Hoffman's Place after speaking to Hoffman, and talk to him.
