Avalon Hill HeroQuest The Frozen Horror Quest Pack & Hasbro Gaming HeroQuest Kellar's Keep Expansion, Ages 14 and Up 2-5 Players, Requires HeroQuest Game System to Play

Product Information

Avalon Hill have also released a HeroQuest app that allows for solo play, since it assumes the role of Zargon, the dungeon master position that was named "Morcar" in the original release. I have used the app multiple times already and it works extremely well. The first three quests can only be played by the Barbarian. If you are used to playing as a party, this can immediately be a turn-off, as everyone else watches instead of participating. As the Barbarian has to rely on healing potions that you can STILL only find via treasure cards, some bad dice rolls can badly impact the ability to progress or complete the solo quest. Three HeroQuest novels by Dave Morris were published: The Fellowship of the Four, The Screaming Spectre and The Tyrant's Tomb. [ citation needed]

But Zargon could not wait; each night he broke into my study and read my spell books. The secrets that were held within them were great indeed. Once he learned these secrets, Zargon fled.

This campaign feels like the designers set the difficulty to hard mode. The new monsters are fantastic but can be very powerful, especially if encountered in large numbers or in corridors, and you can't get all of your characters engaged. Encountering a Yeti in a corridor can mean death for a hero. The wandering monsters feel especially brutal in this campaign.Stunning Artwork: The HeroQuest cards and booklets feature incredible artwork that helps takes players' imaginations into a fantastical world filled with hideous monsters, deadly traps, and more An alternate miniature of the Barbarian.

New monsters are present early, almost like they are on parade to get the Barbarian character (the only hero that can play the first three quests) a taste of the types of monsters to come.

The game is loosely based around archetypes of fantasy role-playing games: the game itself was actually a game system, allowing the gamemaster (called " Morcar" and "Zargon" in the United Kingdom and North America respectively) to create dungeons of their own design using the provided game board, tiles, furnishings and figures. The game manual describes Morcar/Zargon as a former apprentice of Mentor, and the parchment text is read aloud from Mentor's perspective. [3] Several expansions have been released, each adding new tiles, traps, artifacts, and monsters to the core system. The dwarf is the only character that can disarm traps without the aid of the specialized kit which is either bought in the armory or found during certain quests. This is the first of several campaign expansions that provide the history and depth for individual heroes, providing environments, monsters and a story. This expansion offers depth and a compelling story for the Barbarian. The rules are straightforward to get up to speed on, but given the small book, don't expect too much room for pictures to break up the walls of text. Expect to spend a good few minutes reading through all of the additions and new aspects before you play. Game Setup
