I love HeroQuest... I think it's more fun than Descent. Maybe Descent is a more sophisticated game, but it doesn't have furniture.
Interesting factoid:
In 2002, Hasbro (owners of MB) reconfigured HeroQuest and re-released it exclusively in Europe as "
The Dungeons & Dragons Fantasy Adventure Boardgame". Hasbro wanted to exploit their new D&D property and make the game -just different enough- to legally distance themselves from Games Workshop. Still... no furniture.
I would love to get my hands on a copy. Alas, it never came to North America!
