HeroQuest , sometimes written as Hero Quest , is an adventure board game created by Milton Bradley in conjunction with the British company Games Workshop. The game was loosely based around archetypes of fantasyrole-playing games: the game itself was actually a game system , allowing the gamemaster (called “Morcar” in the original British version and most localisations, but “Zargon” in the United States and Canada) to create dungeons of their own design using the provided game board, tiles, furnishings and monsters. The game manual describes Zargon/Morcar as a former apprentice of Mentor, and the parchment text is read aloud from Mentor’s perspective.[2]
I have a complete copy of HeroQuest (with all the minis painted) and a couple of the expansions. I could bring it in one Thursday evening if folks would like to play it.
