I would love to get my hands on a copy. Alas, it never came to North America! |
I actually got a copy of that and yes, it's very much like HeroQuest which I also have. It uses different dice hasn't got any of the trappings of D&D (BAB, hp, skills and all that jazz) but you get differently colored dice (with swords indicating wounds inflicted instead of skulls like HeroQuest) to roll depending on your weapons or spells (which are on cards). It's okay and plays very much like HeroQuest
And yet another word from our sponsors
