Wow, it looks like to surely be one of the best improvements of this project!

The English translation is almost ready. Is there anyone willing to test it?

Wow amazing, and an English translation coming soon too I hear? Fantastic..!

Is there any way to add support for the extra sound effects found in the Atari ST/Amiga versions of the HeroQuest game?

And so we can now not only change the text, but make our own graphics AND our own quests! What about new rules? At that point, any of the real world expansions could be added by fans in the future given enough time and talent (probably starting with Kellar's Keep which was going to be in the NEW version).

Please report any bug, error or typo!

no at the moment, but I managed to expose unused SFX that have been dropped for unknown reason, like spell cast, trap, armour clash, and opening doors.

And so we can now not only change the text, but make our own graphics AND our own quests! What about new rules? At that point, any of the real world expansions could be added by fans in the future given enough time and talent (probably starting with Kellar's Keep which was going to be in the NEW version).
Text and graphics only, but the editor is yet to be released, I have to refine it and public the code under CC lincense on github.
It is now possible to substitute the quests but not add new ones yet. I am working on it.

As nostalgic as the "spinning coin" is for this port, I think it should be replaced by red dice with gold pips (though how hard would it be to create that I'm sure.. and seeing the number is much easier to read I guess).

I didn't forget!
