GMG Reviews - Heroquest: FIRST LIGHT by Avalon Hill and Hasbro

Perfect product and looking forward to it. Only sad that we'll probably never see the return of Space Crusade.

@5:58 "Sheet 'appen." This is a very impressive looking product. I like that they cut the cost without hurting the experience.

Great way to leverage my old original set with the new board size and some new quests

It’s on my to buy list. On the DM screen it comes with slightly adjusted rules over the 2020 release in keeping with the updated rule book. It’s great that the 4 hero’s are in different poses to the new release sculptures that’s still different to the 4 mythic resculpts. For me, the extra cards will come in handy with certain missions that give you extras or to help with armoury buys. I “love” the top down of the room scatter, it adds to the atmosphere brilliantly.

This will be great to update my original 1989 Heroquest, complete despite played with kids(3 boys) alot, like Ash a single dad, from Heroquest and Space Crusade progressed to Necromunda, WH40k, LoTR (GW), Battletech ...... now all grown and we still game KDM a favourite but still interested in the older games.

Amazing! This feels like a must-buy!

£38 on UK Amazon and available to preorder. Very tempting, I never played Hero Quest in my life and have a nephew who might enjoy it

It’s tremendous.

First view of First Light. Nice!

I was thinking about buying the big box heroquest, but this is way better for me, because i already have a ton of minis from other games. I could already replace the cardboard minis. Not to mention if you buy the expansions especially the small box ones you will have the required amount of them.

@ 7:03 the wizard picks, then elf picks, the wizard gets the remaining 2. You don't discard the last one.

This looks great. Question: for the cardboard standees, is the reverse side the back of the creature, or a duplicate of the front of the creature? Thanks!

[@misomiso8228]

Heroquest!!!

[@MrJoshuiashoemaker]

I take it that this will not be available in the states until later next year?

[@euansmith3699]

Apparently some time in May 2025. 👍
