Ye Olde Inn

Came across this yesterday: http://www.heroquest.es/?board=47

Has anyone played this?

If yes, what did you think? seems to be in Spanish, and registration is currently closed.

Anyone aware of English equivalents?

Cheers,
Y

I have recently come to distrust anything HeroQuest related coming from Spain.

Ha! I wanted to post that.

Haha, anyone want to enlighten me on why so distrustful?

Because of Spanish company GameZone's failed attempt at making a HeroQuest remake.
In short they said: Copyrights? fraggle that, let's just go ahead. The whole thing was a disaster from start to end.

It's worse, they lied about actually having the copyrights. They said they have the HeroQuest trademark from Hasbro, and can produce actual official HQ material. When asked for proof, they failed to provide any, and their Kickstarter was shut down.
They're bootleggers trying to make a profit over a good name.
This mmo site probably has nothing to do with GameZone, but I'm staying away from anything Spanish atm.

Ah, I see. Yes, I've heard about it...I hadn't known the company was Spanish until now though. Thanks

It blows my mind that the company thought they could pull this off.
