HeroQuest, a pioneering dungeon-crawling board game, rekindled the thrill of tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons over 30 years ago. Players, embodying heroes such as the Barbarian and Elf, could embark on heroic adventures around the kitchen table in a fraction of the time it takes for a traditional TTRPG. Its iconic box brimming with plastic miniatures and its multi-quest storyline captivated a devoted fanbase, whose enthusiasm led to Hasbro's successful HasLab crowdfunding campaign for its return.
Years later, both new and seasoned fans revel in the new HeroQuest release and its expansions. This buyer's guide helps you plan your adventures in the fight against the evil Zargon.
