FEAR the DARK: HeroQuest fanzine

FEAR the DARK is my new project, a fanzine dedicated to the popular fantasy board game of the 90s which introduced so many of us to dungeon crawling and miniatures: HeroQuest. It will remain faithful to the original material but it aims to bring a different feeling to it, so that there will be no overlapping with the stories of Mentor, Morcar and Zargon.

HeroQuest is once again a Hasbro trademark. This fanzine claims no ownership of the aforementioned trademark, and is instead a personal project made available to the public as a tribute to the old game.

All the PDFs are available at Drivethrurpg, and are free (Pay what you want):
