Quest Books on official Hasbro site

[Spookyhappyfun]

I wanted to look up something regarding the official rules for Spell Scrolls and did a quick Google for the Kellar's Keep and Return of the Witch Lord and discovered that the Hasbro website has PDF scans of the NA Quest Books for the base game, KK, and RotWL. I had no idea this was a thing!

I don't know if they have other books available on the site (and don't have the time to keep typing in possible names to search for it), but it's an interesting little factoid. I wonder if it means anything or whether they secretly just have instruction books for all of their old games hidden away on their site?

Not a secret. They have the instructions for everything on there, current and out of print games. Many of the books are a total mess, out of order and upside down.

I know they also had Barbarian and Elf Quest Pack available (the questbook). I downloaded some years ago.
Unfortunately the quality is just like a common photocopy ... but anyway it ican be useful!

Boy, this takes me back maybe to 2000. Late one night at work, bored and browsing the new fangled interwebby, I found these and thought wtf! an American version of HQ! And then, there are Barbarian and Elf questpacks I've never heard of! oh, my Goddess. Printed off the crappy black and white copies and thought, somehow I've got to get these. and I did, discovering e-bay in the process.

EU HQ was the best game ever invented ("and anyone who says otherwise is wrong"), and I got and played the lot. Now I got to do it all again with an even better game (even with a cheesy sounding villain), and I'm still doing it.

Better scans of original HQ publications can be found at heroquest.no-ip.com

Excellent. Thanks for that.

Well.. it's cool that they at least have them available.... regardless of the awful quality.

Kinda weird they didn't colour-scan them, and lined them out straight.
You can get better ones right here Hasbro should link to us instead.
