Welcome to the forum! I'm looking forward to your game pictures ;)

For me it really wasn't hard at all to take my copy of HQ into my local shop - my best friend actually purchased the shop a few years back! I first took it in just to show and play a round with him, however when I did another guy got really excited - apparently he was a closet quester! Now we play regularly but it's mostly a small group of 2-5 regulars but several kids from the high school play to including several foreign exchange students (for whom I actually picked up foreign variant cards when I could) - it adds some flavor lol.
Some people stare at us and think its dumb but I'm too old to care and I really enjoy my level of nerdiness! :)

Also - does anyone have any extra red dice or pieces from the barbarian quest that they would sell? I really want a polar warbear :)

Well, it's pretty bad when game store geeks think you're a geek. That's a whole new level of geek-dom that I'm not ready to experience. It's bad enough that I play ukulele in public.

We're all geeks playing HeroQuest. You guys are still worried what other people think?

Print out some of the cover art and glue it to a box that would be my advice . but we love to talk game and tactics - HAPPY ACCIDENT !! :D

@Blackthorn - They will think your weird ! ;)

I've thought about bringing HQ to a game store, but I'm afraid people would ask under their breath "dude, what's up with that old guy and the kiddie game?" Thankfully, I have a friend who comes over with his kids to play HQ with me and my kids, so we now have an inter-generational gaming group. It's a lot of fun |_P

Frozen88, what pieces are you missing besides the box?

awesome to have you here! A HQ game at a store!? Who all plays strangers or what ? they like it or....
Do people watch and ask about it? so cool , I took my game to a place and set it up but nobody even asked about it or anything. I set up all the stuff layed out all the monster Cards the screen the heros and nothing, and there were probably 50 people there so i bought a beholder d&d bumper sticker that read "Beholder on board" and a grape pop and sat there for about 2 hours. thanks for Joining ! :lol:

welcome! rekindling a lost love of HQ is what this site and forum are all about. There is so much content here to be had and shared. and a great forum community to boot.
