D&D Board Game

Anyone played this? It's like HeroQuest with Mialee and Co.

Shame it couldn't be more like Advanced Heroquest, that would be really cool :)

I 've taken a look at it. It is far too simplistic and restrictive. And when you have tasted the real thing... well it's not really worth it. It could be useful though as introductory material for very young players.

I found it great to play drunk.

I gave it as a present to my fiancée's little brother (11 y.o.), and we played it a lot...
After a year or so, he asked me to ma to play "the real thing", but he keeps playing the boardgame with his friends... ;)

I played that once as a kid. It's a good intro into DnD for younger players.

I'm pretty sure that the version of the game Drinnik has was only released in Europe by Hasbro and not the US. Plus it was only released about a year or so ago. According to Dragon it didn't get a US release so as not to confuse people with two systems for the same game.

I personally think the game is grea, it's simple but fun and the tiles are great to use in the proper game. Plus the Add-on has a dragon in it and thats cool.

That was me.
I can feel the universe flowing through me,
I am more than man,
More than Life,
I am a GOD.
