HeroQuest Board Idea
🕑 Added 2021-05-29 12:39:23 +0000 UTCAs most of you've seen, I'm slowly updating HeroQuest (mostly right now, visually) But I play to add my own rules with new quest, side quest, heroes, skills, etc. But of course it will still keep the heart of heroquest by being simple. Overall it's still the same game, just with extras.
But what I'm about to say could be seen as blasphemous. What if I changed it to room tiles? Like advanced heroquest and warhammer quest have? Would that make it not heroquest anymore? Because to be honest, one of the weakest things about heroquest is the board. Yes, the board is iconic. But my problem is that it always looks the same no matter where you are.
"In the evil castle of a chaos warlord" same
"fighting the witch lord" same
"ogre lair" same
kinda boring to see the same board over and over again. I know some already play with room tiles, and room tiles have a lot of positives. Easier to lay down, put up, no walls, no empty areas like the board. But would room tiles make it not heroquest for you to not play it?

Jason interesting. I have been looking at putting a Warhammer Quest game together since its impossible to find a copy. But thought I might do the same with Hero Quest. I looked at the new kickstarter models from Hasbro. I don't like them I like the old school (classic) ones better by far.

Warhammer Quest was better than Hero Quest. I said it. It's completely better, and not by a small amount. Scrap the dedication to the iconic board. You can do better.
