My main issue with the Heroquest expansions is that the cards inside the boxes have no icons whatsoever to indicate the expansion they belong to. Which I find so frustrating when I have to sort them back into their boxes because pretty much every board game with expansions today has them and it shouldn’t be an issue money-wise to add. Plus when you’re spending big bucks on a product of Hasbro you’d expect it to be well thought out, organised and have some quality of life at least to make it up for the cost. Unless I’m missing something.

I sleeve my cards. What I do is put a color sticker on the bottom left of the sleeve face. It doesn't damage the card and allows me to keep track of the expansion. I put the same sticker on the manual. I bought a sheet of quarter inch dot stickers in different colors.

The beauty about hero quest is also being able to improve more challenge or change anything up as wished, thats what i do :) if a quest seems a little lackluster just change it up a little as you go.

regarding storage: everything released so far including all the crowdfunding bonuses will fit into the core box once you get rid of those terrible plastic trays. :) (i know this because i have promised my wife that i'll only buy as much HQ as can fit in the one box, and i haven't stopped buying stuff yet....)

All the expansions! That is a huge (money) commitment for the video series :) Now that you showed it all, i think the one area Heroquest did better than its spirital successors like shadow over Hammerhal or Altar Quest etc is the Homebrew friendly nature. The simplicity / toy nature of the game means even children can come up with house rules and the new hasbro expansions just means a lot of new toy for kids to play with.

Stellar review man. As someone who got introduced to tabletop gaming partially through HQ, this game has a special place in my heart and collection. While I still have some of the old stuff, and even managed to get Against the Ogre Horde for a reasonable price, I was never able to get my hands on the other rare expansions. Been on the fence as to whether I should get the new ones just so I can finally have a version of them. This vid was really helpful seeing what exactly you get with each one. Thanks!

I still have the original box of Against the Ogre Horde and Kellars Keep. Unfortunately I threw out the original Return of the Witch Lord box a long time ago long before it all became worth a lot of money. It was one of those collapseable boxes which is why I threw it out while Kellars and Ogre are actual stiff carboard boxes and I kept them to use them as storage boxes.

Not sure if they missed the mark with keeping the game and the first two expansions true to the original. I think there are those in the HQ community that would have balked (despite the flaws) if they deviated too much too early on. Moving forward though, I do hope to see more creativity and new stuff.

I'm very keen to pick up a new HQ and some expansions. Partly for a maze to use with my AHQ and also as the stand-alone game. Kellers Keep and Return of the With Lord are only about £22 each in UK and the main game about £70 - so fairly good value IMO. I have a lot of original HQ mins I picked up on ebay cheap in job-lots over recent months so may swap out the new minis for the classic old ones. As a kid I used to paly this a lot but not for about 25 years!

To be fair, we generally all played it rules as written until we ran out of quests. THEN we started modifying it & adding to it to keep things different. I don't think anyone got the Boxed sets for the first time & said "let us only play with these house rules that just appeared fully formed in my head".

Just google "Heroquest what is mind" for a really good example of what I was talking about. People even back in the day were coming up with different ways to use the stat. Maybe I just talk with more tinkerers than you do, but from my investigations, almost no one ever played 100% RAW - the game's rules even encourage Zargon to get creative. But that's awesome that people did! That's the best thing about these kinds of games - there are so many different ways to play. I usually end up house ruling almost every game I play for the Dungeon Dive. But that's just me. :)

Great video. But I think you missed the point of including more green skins and undead in Kellars Keep and Return of The Witch Lord. The "power" of these creatures lay in their ability to horde, something 3 skeletons can hardly do. When I bought these expansions during HQ's original release back in the 90s, I was pleased to add to my legions of green skins and undead. Of course, not as excited as I would later be about the entirely new monsters of the Elf and Barbarian quest packs. Your point isn't invalid. Just a little short-sighted...maybe.

You should have no trouble finding it. It’s a really cool addition to the game.

True, many fans house rule HeroQuest, but I believe the casuals stick to the rules more and there are usually more casuals then superfans imho. I think BGG and other fan sites may give false impressions that house ruling is more prevalent than it is since the superfans are generally more vocal on sites like that.

Keeping just about everything the way it was is extremely important to the product and legacy of the product. Sure more advanced things have come but they are not heroquest. And adding new rules is purely up to the player as it was 30 years ago when supplements were coming out and as the internet blossomed in the 90s bet your bottom dollar so did the community and sharing ideas. You yourself have said you have no attachment to this piece of actual board game history when many many many more do have that. And to buy the og content again after all these years and not pay scalpers is an amazing thing and it's done well for them. That is the reason why the product to you feels old because it is. But there is 30 years of fan addition to go through which adds so much great content and changes the way. But if they were to release this not the way it was it wouldn't have sold well.

Much prefer the first edition of Descent, with homebrewed rules of course, to any of the later ones. The second just have way too short quests to give it a real quest/campaign/dungeon feel. And I really like my board games to be board games and not app games, so the third one definitely isn't for me either (though I own it, as I actually thought that the app was optional).

I don't care if they are faithful reprints, all I care about is how it is right now. Continuing to make something bad because it used to be bad is a insanely poor excuse for a bad product. Which is exactly why I discussed in the series that I would have preferred the Restoration Games treatment.

Nostalgics / Long time fans, or new fans. :) Changing rules or box content takes more time and money, and would probably result in a new edition or something, but that would also mean that people who actually wanted to play the old stuff was out of luck, because of the price tag on classic HQ.
