I just have to share this with you!

Woman is a Danish lifestyle magazine aimed at... women.
Their website woman.dk made a small feature in the entertainment section "17 genius board games you had forgotten existed".
And on slide 13, out of freaking nowhere... BAM! HeroQuest! In a women's magazine!
It's not much, but we'll take what we can about HQ in modern media! |_P

Goblin Translate:


17 genius board games you had forgotten existed
Remember when the best Christmas present you could get was a board game?
That's why we've had just about all of these laying around.

Heroquest

Heroquest were perhaps mostly for (role playing) boys, but if you've had a brother you definitely played it.
And by God was it mystical and appealing!

Is woman.dk part of your daily browsing routine or how did you discover this?

Yes?

nah, I think I was googleing for top 10 animated movies and checking out a couple of the lists, one of which was Woman's.
From there they had a link for another top list for board games.
You can get far and wide by following links :P

Nobody ever tried getting lost in time on wikipedia by following a trail of interesting links? :ugeek:

A little masculinity policing this fine morning?

Got to be sure that all maleness is strictly enforced to rigid standards, right?

It's interesting they used a picture featuring AtOH since it definitely was unavailable in Denmark.
Only Keller's Keep ever made it if I recall correctly. It's the only one I ever played as a kid at least. Not even RotWK.
