Has anybody in Canada received a copy yet?

My 12yo son and I just finished the 1st quest, we used the app to play as Zargon. I was the barbarian and wizard, he was the elf and dwarf. I let him choose where we went and was cringing inside when he steered us to the cha…err I mean Dread Warriors. Was a tough battle but used both healing spells and fire spells and tempest to survive. We got lucky finding a healing potion and used that vs the Gargoyle as well as sleep on the other dread warrior with him. Stoneskin and courage saved us but after clearing the room we had to just head back to the stairs. Never went up to the top half of the map.

Was a lot of fun. Liked using app for Zargon.

Not that I've heard yet, and no word on when it might be arriving either.

On one hand, I'm happy to have more heroes. On the other hand, that price is a bit much; I hope that's not the final price.

That’s a heck of a lot of money for one Hero. And it is one Hero, just with two different figures for it. Calling it a “sculpt” is an advertising trick to make it sound more grandiose than what it actually is.
Also, why does a Knight Hero need to come with 12 cards? I’m predicting another unnecessary crappy spin off like the other 3 bonus Heroes.

Hmmm, I mean that seems fairly in line with Australian RRP for things like Imperial Assault.. I think packs with more than one character were $30-$40... I picked up most for less on sale though.. would be nice to have an indication on how long these will be in print though so I know if I can wait them out or not..

On the Hasbro page talking about the App:

Our developers also included several additional options in the app. One such option was added due to feedback we received from our amazing HeroQuest backers – we found players had different interpretations when it came to movement rules interacting with the game furniture. Therefore, our team added a toggle in the options menu for “intangible furniture” which allows heroes and monsters to move through spaces that on the board contain furniture.

Another option available to players is the ability to save the state of your game to be continued later. Tapping the “back” arrow in the upper left will ask if you want to save your quest before exiting the app. Alternatively, you can tap the “settings” button in the upper right corner, and then “Exit to Title” to save. Once a quest is saved it will appear on the title screen so you can quickly resume that quest. Should you want to change your active quest, tap “New Quest” on the title screen. You can then select or create a party and select a new quest for that party.

Should you have any other custom “house rules” or options you would like to see included, we hope you share your ideas with us to add to future versions of the app!

And speaking of those future versions, we consider the launch of the HeroQuest Companion App as just the beginning. Our focus for launch was to deliver the HeroQuest Game System core quest book and build the foundation of a Digital Zargon experience. We are committed to improving and expanding the HeroQuest Companion App over time. As announced in the app, we will be adding Kellar’s Keep and the Return of the Witch Lord digital quest books in the near future.

We are also fully committed to supporting our fans. We are in this together and your feedback is essential to the development of this experience. So PLEASE, let us know your feedback and what app feature, success or failure, is most important to you. We hope to add even more digital quest content in the future.

You can reach out to the Avalon Hill team on Twitter either @AvalonHill or to Zargon himself @HeroQuest. You can also find us on Instagram @AvalonHillGames.

Now get out there and QUEST!

So I'm still signed up to gamezone mailing list from years ago because I was interested if anything would come out of their HQ attempt.. got this link today from them.

Ludofilia's tabletop game is being rebranded as TseuQuesT.

- Ludofilia, in an accord with Hasbro, has renounced all its valid Heroquest trademarks throughout Europe. Ludofilia used those trademarks to cover its version of the board game that it offered in crowdfunding and pre-sale. From now on the board game will be RENAMED TseuQuesT. The exact contents or the game itself will remain unchanged.

-It only the name has changed, all of the board game content remains unchanged, except for the use of the new brand TseuQuesT to encompass all its components.

- Both Backers and pre-sale customers have had to endure with extreme patience the continuous delays of the official launch of our board game. Finally,the foreseen delivery date by the European-based printing company is for the end of the first quarter of 2022. If all goes well, from that date we will start shipping your games.

-Optionally, Backers and pre-sales customers will have the chance to exchange their reserved copies of the Ludofilia game for copies of the Hasbro version of Heroquest: ONLY 1 FOR BACKER (more information on CANJE HQ)

-This exclusive exchange offer for crowdfunding backers and pre-sales made by customers until the day before this announcement -November 15, 2021-

-From this moment, any new client who wants to pre-buy the TseuQuesT board game can do so here.

-The current price of the TseuQuesT is the same as offered during the crowdfunding campaign, and will remain until the day of its official launch, at which time its price will be adjusted upwards.

We greatly thank Hasbro for their professionalism and cordiality since our first contact at the beginning of 2013 until now.

It looks like that HeroQuest 25th Anniversary thing I heard about...and apparently, it is. Well, hopefully those backers still get something for their troubles. At any rate, though, I'm gonna wait until I see TseuQuesT in the store shelves before making any decisions.

I'm told you might have success using a VPN...

Thanks for the reply Kurgan, but that was the first thing I tried! Apparently App stores note your initial location then go out of their way to prevent you changing that, even if you log into them from "another country". There is an option to change your location in the app store, but apparently you can only do that once per year and even then they reset your play store points? bastards.
Never mind. I assume they will release versions for other countries in time.

Sounds like it's not intentionally region locked. Apparently it just takes some time for it to become available in app stores for various regions:
