HeroQuest
![]() |


HeroQuest is a simple board game with two rules:
- Everyone wants to be the barbarian
- No one wants to be the wizard
The basic idea of Heroquest is that you control a pre-built party of stock fantasy characters (Barbarian, Dwarf, Elf and Wizard) running through pre-made or custom-made modules on a board. It is, in essence, an extremely stripped down version of DnD made to be as simple as possible while still providing a dungeon-crawling experience.
Comes with awesome 25mm dungeon furniture.
HeroQuest is the not the first of it's kind, but it is considered the progenitor of a lineage of minis and dungeon-crawler games:
- HeroQuest (1989)
- Advanced HeroQuest (1989)
- DragonQuest (1992)
- Mutant Chronicles: Siege of the Citadel (1993)
- Warhammer Quest (1995)
- BrickQuest (2003)
- Doom: The Boardgame (2004)
- Descent: Journeys in the Dark (2005)
- LEGO Heroica (2011)
