Heroquest - Buy The Board Game

What is Heroquest All About?

HeroQuest was Milton Bradley's approach to adventure games such as the mighty Dungeons & Dragons.

The game is played by a group of players with one player acting as the games master, whose role it is to reveal the maze-like dungeons and worlds room by room as the players wander around the gameboard on the quest at hand.

The players who decide to take on the quest can choose as to which character they would like to play as from a (Wizard, Elf, Dwarf or Barbarian) and they each take in turns to roll die and venture forth into the dungeons on fantasy quests, which could either be randomly generated as you went along or set to an actual quest.

The quest is laid out with detailed playing pieces, miniature plastic characters and cool furniture and creatures which sets this board game apart from all others and the rules can be as complex or as simple as needed.
