Lost Quest Packs Part 1: HeroQuest Talk w/ LucaPaschi! (english interview)

[@HeroQuestFans]

yes, a group of fans is hard at work restoring the "lost" Wizard and Dwarf quest packs to a playable form that would have been recognizable had things turned out differently in the 1990's and the HeroQuest franchise not been cancelled... and here we talk to the defacto leader of the group to share some details and insights into the process of this upcoming free release!

[@TheFair-WeatherMan]

This is fantastic! What a passion of love. I can't wait to add it to my collection!

[@HeroQuestFans]

same here!

[@devarionarias]

I remember reading on the old forums at Ye Olde Inn when these packs were discovered and getting excited about them then. I love that you guys are so dedicated to making it look and feel original and can't wait to get my hands on it. Looks amazing. Thank you for sharing and for all the hard work you've put in on it!

[@Liminal_Sub]

Thanks so much for this! It’s fascinating to have this new glimpse into HeroQuest history 30+ years later. It’s funny how this sounds extremely similar to my homebrewed Wizard Quest Pack. Great minds think alike

[@hispazargon]

Re-watching it!

[@HeroQuestFans]

Errata: I acknowledge that the Frozen Horror & Mage of the Mirror were in fact translated into other languages (German, French, Italian, Spanish... and Polish via the Companion App at least)... I just meant they were not translated officially out of English in the 1990's (but they WERE for the modern remake versions via Avalon Hill, which is a welcome thing).

[@Rodfather_Prime]

I recognize those models :). I own the 4-ups for these sets 👍. “Skyknight” Those were going to be thrown out. We are lucky they were saved.

[@HeroQuestFans]

That is very cool, thanks for saving them, and thanks for posting!

[@HeroQuestFans]

subtitles autotranslation will be added ! Stay tuned, another interview is planned for early November...

[@lucarocks7866]

Great stuff! Nice to see dedicated fans trying to finish something that was started years ago. Hope the dwarf one is bale to be done eventually as it has come pretty cool monsters IIRC (rhino-mole, golem etc)

[@HeroQuestFans]

please enjoy the REPLAY!

[@HeroQuestFans]

Subtitles finally working!

[@edwinmascorn5136]

Wow, how do I get this ? 🙏🙏🙏

[@HeroQuestFans]

when it's released (late 2024/early 2025), you'll be able to just download it, free. not sure where, maybe multiple places after awhile... (but what you don't want to do is buy it from someone... it is NOT intended to be sold, and anyone doing so is scamming you). some people are already selling models claiming to be part of the packs, but these have nothing to do with Luca and the Lost Quest packs project (the 3/4ups have been available in photos for a long time, so it was inevitable some would try to re-create them, but they don't have all the info that this project does!).

[@GeekGoneGiddy]

A 3rd @LucaPaschi interview! 👏

[@FernandoAPrado]

Terrific job!! If you want help converting it to HQ 2021, count on me! (Odanan here)

[@HeroQuestFans]

great idea! Also thanks for visiting, Odanan (best way is probably to connect in Discord for this)

[@giannastavros4653]

i love the old heroquest. When the wizard quest pack is ready , how can i get it?

[@HeroQuestFans]

you'll be able to download it free online (and then print if you wish)

[@paulcooper6048]

Where is this available? How much?

[@HeroQuestFans]

it's not available anywhere yet... and it's not going to be for sale. probably next year sometime you'll be able to download all of the parts and print it yourself if you wish

[@marcuswright5577]

Interested in buying one of these, all miniatures, cards, cardboard tiles and quest booklet included. Is this possible or do you just make some for you and your friends?

[@HeroQuestFans]

it's not for sale. theoretically you can take the free digital files you will download and print them yourself (paying a print shop if you don't have your own printers), etc. to sell it would risk the entire project since it's not endorsed or sponsored by AH/Hasbro

[@HeroQuestFans]

there will be PDFs of the documents and STLs (all free) of the figures, all of which could be printed for personal, private, non-profit use. even with just the info you could play it, modify it, use proxy miniatures from anywhere for the new characters and assets.
