  • I love the mechanic and construction of this quest - really well considered layout and secrets that slowly reveal as the quest progresses - great work and best of luck!
  • A seemingly simple quest objective unfolds into a truly original adventure! So many delightful touches here: the zombie mini boss Fearmonger, the mysterious spell scrolls, a chest-carrying mechanic that actually adds tension and excitement (unlike another quest I could name… *cough cough* Prince Magnus’ Gold!) And wow, the moment when the heroes figure out the scrolls and the chest, I can just imagine the table lighting up with excitement. And the last minute objective of carrying out the second chest, all while the orcs are marching down the halls, wonderful! Bonus stars in fun factor and originality. Great job on this quest, I’d love to see what else you’ve got up your portal-sleeves, DennisDus.

The Chest - Submission for the HeroQuest 2024 Quest Jam

In this Quest the Heroes are tasked with stealing a large chest out of a fortress. However, things do not work out as planned. While the Heroes fend off overwhelming odds,  they must find their way out and  perhaps also find the true nature of the secret weapon hidden in the chest.
