The moment I heard "The best thing about Heroquest" the like was yours no matter what followed.
The mus cue laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaariteeee!
@@herryoung Right, now that the peasentry is gone...
LOVE the nod to BardicBroadcasts. That man needs his own documentary show about vintage games of all kinds.
One word comes to mind... jealous! I love what you did!
I was looking to buy an old copy of HeroQuest and here you go making dip into 3d printing.... thanks alot Geek! Love you no nonsense videos.
This was the first board game I played, way before finding other board games. I have so many fond memories of me playing HeroQuest with my cousins and friends, and seeing this beauty now brings all those emotions back. I like the splash of color on the walls instead of them being all gray, and I also like their height. You can easily tell the rooms apart, but their low height allows players to view all the models at all times.
The classic of all dungeon crawlers turned WAY more epic. Just wow, that's amazing!
Omg man..... You are a God. Still my all time favourite game to this day. Great job.
That is dope dude.... The best thing about Heroquest is this Brawd Sawd!
Amazing👍 what a great 3D board of Hero Quest
Great job!!! Your 3D printer will need holydays after all these printings!
Looking into getting one of these to step up my game! Can’t wait to try it and paint
Love the whole set up! The map pieces, the table, must have cost an absolute fortune!!!
Yeah, it cost $160 in PLA and another $200 in magnets. You can go without the magnets though and do the clips and it's not too bad then.
but more readily available than the announced HeroQuest that is US & Canada only.
I still have 2 full base game sets, plus all the expansion packs, i really like what yah did with this, be a dream come true a new and revised edition of Hero Quest, just like what you have done.
Hasbro are announcing a new edition of the game tomorrow.
Thanks for the video! Really like your painting technique for the tile set too, looks fantastic. I may try just printing floor pieces in PLA the color I want.
If you can do that, you would save quite a bit of time!
Oh my. My brother this game! I only managed to pretend I know what I was doing by myself with this game. This may actually be the best gift I could ever give him. Thanks so much for this!
Glad it helps! Make sure to check out some of my other follow-up videos because I provide other options.
Takes me back to the good old days. My brother had this game and we built a 3d board using cardboard from old boxes and made it 2 levels high withe stairs down and each level could be lifted off the others. It made the game a lot more fun.
Sounds like Heroquest on a Necromunda board.
Wow.
@@te9591 Actually we built in in 1977 before any of those games were released in Australia. We used 1/72 soldiers we modified and made our own rules for movement. encumbrance, combat and puzzle solving using the d6s from an old game, I think might have been Monopoly. It worked great when friends came around to try it out.
Looks brilliant.
Fantastic job.
Awesome build.
I just ordered my first 3d printer last week. It should arrive this week and I already know what is going to be my first major project :)
Awesome! Make sure to watch Part 3 so you know your options for the HQ build.
Awesome board!
One of my all time favorite games
Sorry if you said and I missed - what did you print these on?
Prusa MK3S and a Creality Ender 5 printing at .2 layer height.
WTF? Those floors with a dark shade looks totally awesome.
2:50 well if anything from my years of music festivals has taught me is that mushrooms make everything better.
I think you probably need to dry brush highlight over the wash to get the right look on your dungeon tiles. I rarely see folks finish with a wash. It’s usually wash with more highlights after.
I didn't think of 'welding' multiple tiles together... its such a simple idea i feel dumb! thanks for the assist! Doomvault has a fair amount of 'wierd' rooms....so fusing tiles together would probably solve that :)
No problem! Glad it helped.
I never commented on this video, but this is actually how I found out about the Hasbro Pulse Pledge, and just barely in time. THANK YOU!
Glad you were able to get in on the reprint! Were you able to paint up your set?
@@gaminggeek241 I live overseas, so it’s actually in care of friends for the foreseeable future. But I convinced them to order their own set, too, so no danger of them sneaking into my boxes!
@@Petrichoroma 🤣 That was smart of you!
Lol, love the callback to @bardicbroadcasts.
It’s kinda mandatory if you’ve done a review after him. The Bard has become synonymous with BROUDSWUOORD... I mean Heroquest
Lol loved the intro!
love it
That is going to be such a gorgeous board when you finish up! I'm very impressed with the detail of the prints. What layer height did you use?
.2
excellent
Really cool. Can’t find it though. Looked all over Dragons Rest.
You have to become a Patreon supporter for $6 and you'll gain access to all the files. This is a good deal because just the dungeon set used to be sold for $10.
@@gaminggeek241 It says only the current months models ... not previous months :(
@@Geo-Shi it gives you the current months code to access the files but it has all of their files on it
Super work. I really like all your vidéos. Anyway what color did you use to print floor ?
This looks excellent man. Im looking to design my own but am wondering how you incorporated ed the size of the walls into the tiles that way rooms wouldn't make the walls offset and miss aligned. Did you just make Special tiles with walls printed into the design making the edge squares a smaller width to compensate ?
Yes, that is the case. Since the tiles are 1.5 inches wide, there is enough space for the walls and still have enough for the miniature.
Thank you so much for all the provided custom pieces in the Remix folder. Where can I find the corner piece (3:50min) ... I just cannot find it,. Thanx for your help.
Update: I have the walls/doors printed, and about 80% of the floors but I'm starting to get real confused about where/why some have sections that miss ONE section of wall magnet clip locations where it makes no real sense for it when I lay them out according to the map in your GamingGeek folder from DragonsRest. Particulary confused on the D2/D3 rooms... no matter how I lay them out it doesnt seem to work right for the walls. Thanks again for all this it will still end up amazing in the end. Had a major catastrophe with the Ender5 Plus a month back and really set me back. I updated to the Creality Sonic Pad + Klipper and boy that has been an amazing upgrade since speed has been amazing. Rock solid.
Click here in Part 4 of this series and I show the layout of all the boards. Hope this helps! ua-cam.com/video/cUyjW94ehO8/v-deo.html
I want to play this now. Knowing full well I’ll never actually play it
There’s a great group on Facebook dedicated to HQ. HeroQuest fanatic
EPIC
Btw Hasbro has put up their own crowd funding campaign on pulse to remake the hero quest game. It's over 2 million now, which currently fulfills all of the stretch goals.
Looks awesome! I'm working on a custom board too, though not as intricate. What do you plan to use in place of the monster miniatures? I've struggles to find good replacements for the fimirs and the gargoyle. 3D printing the original replicas miniatures isn't an option right now.
Yeah, the fimirs are hard but I'm thinking of replacing with some lizardmen. The gargoyle is easier as any winged demon can be painted grey like stone.
The guy behind DungeonWorks has also been recreating all the old Hero Quest miniatures through his Patreon (and then they're put up for sale afterwards). So far he's done the Barbarian and the Wizard (and not just one miniature of each, but a prototype version, the classic version, box art version, advanced HQ version and a female version) of the heroes and the Skeletons, Chaos Warriors, Zombies, Mummies and the Chaos Sorcerer (some of these have several versions too, like box art versions etc.).

If you're looking for non-3D printable minis, then Zealot Miniatures did a Kickstarter for new versions of the heroes and monsters, which you can get in either resin or metal. They delivered the first wave of miniatures back in January, so those should be available on their website soon-ish (the whole pandemic has slowed things down a bit) and the second round of minis from them are just about to get cast.

I had the same problem with making mine, trying to find a gargoyle and fimir proxy I finaly settled on these:
Gargoyle - www.thingiverse.com/thing:520158
Fimir - www.thingiverse.com/thing:3839159 (used a warforged cause I wanted somthing that looked not-of-this-world)
Thanks for these tips. I am making an HQ board from zero and it helps a lot!
WoW really cool! 🔝🔝🔝🏆🏆🏆
7:06 The feedback rating on that ebay seller you bought from is something else.....
Yeah, I received mine fine but now I order for Aliexpress and takes about a month to arrive. You sort of have to shop around to get the best deals.
is there somewhere I can get all this finished, printed and everything? Or can I buy something similar somewhere else?
Any ideas?
I would love to get something modular like this for my kids warhammer figurines
I really would love to get my hands on the manual or the game, or 3d printed one.
Try Dwarvenforge

Very nice, would you feel about making one too sale.
Do you use any varnish or protective layer?
I saw this last year and was blown away. Do you offer the adjusted pieces you modified from the Dragon's Rest pieces or are they now available through their patreon? I became a patron last year and downloaded the set last summer not sure if your modifications (corners / edge pieces) are incorporated in their set through any collaboration. I was hoping to do this project with my Ender 5 plus.
Yes, Ian created corner pieces and in fact, has a bunch of varied walls that also came out so make sure to download all the new pieces (bunch of cool furniture too).
@Gaminggeek Thank You we finally played Hero Quest first time ever. I am in my 50s and somehow missed HQ in my D&D days in the 90s... had a great time am now smitten with printing this! Keep up the good work it inspires! Love your videos and dedication to this hobby.
Buenas tu trabajo es impresionante... Como tengo que hacer para conseguir los archivos de impresión de este tablero junto con las puertas?? Perdon la pregunta soy nuevo en este mundillo.
Todos los archivos de impresión se encuentran en las carpetas de Dragon's Rest, incluidas las puertas. Tienes que convertirte en un seguidor de Dragon's Rest Patreon para poder acceder a los archivos.
Just came across your video after a week of playing Heroquest with my youngest. Do have to ask: what kind of 3d printer do you have or recommend to do something as in the video? I don't own one but oooooooooh so tempted to buy one.
A lot of people buy the Ender 3 v2 for $260 but you will need to fiddle with it to get it tuned in. The Ender CR-6 is a step up with auto-leveling at $400. If you want hassle-free, get the Prusa MK3S but it's pricey at $750 (kit) or $1K prebuilt.
I want to reroll myself as an EPIC ASIAN so i have +99 to intel to make things like this
That's the racial bonus modifier!
Those are pretty standard 3D-printed pieces. If you don't have a 3D printer or access to one (I have neither), you can make one yourself. In fact, you can make yours nearly as modular if you want to.
It's really easy to work in foamcore and styrofoam dinner plates. I suggest cutting 1 inch squares out of the plates with scissors and using a 28mm grid on the foamcore. Cut your foamcore down to a hair over 29 by about 21.5 inches. That'll give you a quarter inch or so on all sides. If you can arrange to sub birch for foam core, you MIGHT consider cork in place of the foam, but … I'd keep the foam, personally. Less "3D" that way, but I can just draw cracks in the tiles with a ballpoint pen and glue my tiles with a gluestick. The 1" tiles and 28mm board squares are on purpose-creates nice grout lines between the tiles, and it's a good size for the HQ models which are a little crowded on 25mm and claustrophobic on the standard 22mm.
Glue stick or low temp hot glue the plate tiles to your foamcore base, ballpoint to draw patterns/cracks in individual tiles, modpodge (carefully and in sections to reduce warping potential), use cheap acrylic craft paints and ink wash to add depth. Spray urethane (lightly, in coats, from a distance) to seal.
Tips: Make the board ~31x24 inches (a little more if you want a margin) to make a back side with a "German" HQ board grid. Like, I'd just paint it dark gray and draw the grid in fine point silver sharpie and urethane it to use with Black Magic Craft's foamcore tiles. glue wooden coffee stirrers to the edges to make them stronger and less able to warp when you modpodge them. If you make all the HQ rooms (and central room a 6x6 square), you can make a bunch of 2x* corridor tiles for modular AHQ-style layouts. Shave those tiles so the stirrers are part of the room and you could put it together as a German-style board. The question always becomes though… BMC's tiles were two-sided. But they're gonna slip around if they're small. I'd make the tiles one-sided and make them non-slippy.
@@knghtbrd Definitely an option to hand-make the board. What I like about Dragon's Rest though is the magnetized walls that can be easily swapped out for doors, which is a gameplay mechanic for HQ. What solution would you use for handmade walls?
Not all slicers will handle combining pieces like that. Some of us have to drop a piece into meshmixer first ;)
Are those floor tiles a 1.25in grid? Looks good. I am not a fan of 1in grids generally speaking.
Check out the comparison video he mentions (and links to), it explains the sizes of the floor tiles.
These are 1.5" squares.
Did you paint the rivets at the bottom of the wall tiles or in the rivets of wall tiles with the wood plank: Dun Wall Long A
No, I didn't bother painting the rivets.
im considering a .25 scale heroquest travel edition with all my 3D printers lol
i recently got my fathers 2 boxes of original heroquest
good job i start last week your boardgame on dragon rest but i cant find 5mm magnet ball where did you buy that i found some on wish but i dont know if my order will arrive one day
i look your video everyday for this projet
sorry for my english i dont speak well that language:)
Yes, I know it is very difficult to buy 5mm ball magnets in the United States right now. Usually, people can order them through Amazon or Ebay but I think there is a shortage. Depending on where you live, you may need to order directly from China or other sources that will take longer than one day of shipping. It took three months for me to receive my order from China. Sorry about the bad news.
Can you please explain how you got the lighter color at 12:00?
When I spray paint it with the same spray paint it’s coming out really dark and I don’t know why. Also, what do you mean by wash?
I'm not sure why you are getting a darker color if you are using the exact same brand. It should be consistent unless Rustoleum changed their formula.
A wash is using an ink in order to fill in the recesses. See my vid here: ua-cam.com/video/kRomCIBGmuQ/v-deo.html
What filament color is best for then Priming on top of? Black or White??
wow! which 3d printer do you recommend if i wanted to get started?
A good entry level one is the Creality Ender 3. Tons of people have them so you can find support online fairly easily. They are cheap but require quite a bit of tinkering and adjusting to get it to work correctly. If you have the funds, I recommend the Prusa MK3S which is a workhorse with minimal upkeep and auto bed leveling. Finally, the Bambu Lab X1 is dummy-proof but will cost the most.
I prefer the dirty, dark wash on the floor tiles. Dungeon's aren't clean places. They're dark, dank places for the foul creatures to dwell in
I know that this is a looooooong time ago, and that you might not remember it - but if I may ask - the apothecary in the beginning around 0:44 timestamp - what colors did you use for those outer walls around the windows?
I use the same colors and technique as this video shows: ua-cam.com/video/Yh4Kwu4RyAM/v-deo.htmlsi=lar--_byJzdlUCOG&t=549
Last day of May and only 23 off 30 Days of tiles released, I take this to mean it is just a 30 day stretch and not the colander month of May. Grab them before the end of the first week of June.
Also appears there is no download for day 14?
@@waza987 Thanks for clarifying--yeah it looks like that's the case for day 14.
Found missing day 14 is on Thingiverse, along with all the other same ones on my mini factory. Just search for 30 days of tiles.
@Gaminggeek: I am just starting printing this 3D Board, but here in the Netherlands it is hard to find the correct spraypaint. My supplier asked me if I had the article / productnumbers of de spraypaints you discribed in your video, So he can order the correct ones here in teh Netherlands for me. Do you have them?
What 3D printer did you use? Do you have recommendations for a first-time printer buyer?
I have a Prusa MK3S and a Creality Ender 5. Creality is almost a third of the cost of the Prusa but requires tinkering and mods to get it to work well. Prusa is plug-and-play. I have videos of both printers and you can see which one is better for you! Hope that helps.
@@gaminggeek241 Can you do a walk through of your print settings for the prusa? I'm still new and could use some detials.
@@ArtemisAG06 I print at .2 mm height with 10% infill. Otherwise, I use the stock settings in PrusaSlicer software for generic PLA. Dragon's Rest files do not need any support. Do you need anything else?
@@gaminggeek241 No sir. Thanks for the responses.
@@gaminggeek241 hi, I’m looking at the prusa mini (smaller print bed 18cm) vs the original prusa specifically for the Heroquest board. Do you think I could get away with the smaller build plate or do you think I would need the larger prusa? Thanks in advance
OK, this may not be the right video, but where do you get the spikes for the spike wall you have on the dragons rest patreon folder? I found the wall piece, but no spikes anywhere?
Those are toothpick tips that I glued in the holes. Easier than printing spikes.
I'm making my own game and I'm on the phase of 3d printing and need to know how did you 3d printed
I'm not sure what question you are asking--do mean how did I print on my 3D printer? Make sure to watch my other videos showing the process.
Can you please share the PLA you use? I was thinking e-Sun+
Oh one more question.... what miniatures are you going to use?
I have bucket loads of minis to use--mostly Reaper Bones. If you have a 3D printer, you can print all of the old ones. But I'm just going to proxy minis that I already own.
@@gaminggeek241 thanks that's the way I'm going
Can you tell me how much would be to 3d print just the floor?
My guess is that it would be about 3 rolls of PLA, which would be about $66 USD.
I don't remember mushrooms growing in my HeroQuest dungeon?
That's for AltarQuest. ua-cam.com/video/OQygBNFamio/v-deo.html
Hi
may i ask is there any parts guide of your board , how many tiles to print and walls pieces and all printing parts quantity. i want to print your complete board as it is, if tou can give printing parts with quantity many thanks.
If you take a look at my Part 3 video, I explain the options you have there as I know it can be confusing (and Ian has a build list in his files): ua-cam.com/video/-SfzX_FO83Q/v-deo.html
Where can I get these magnetics connections? Are perfects for my Dungeon¡¡
I bought my 5mm ball magnets online. Check your online stores (or Aliexpress).
@@gaminggeek241 I was referring to the plastic connection printed, (Openlock?) Is it your own design? are there STLs available? I love your work man, keep it up!

@@damasorojasamante6354 There is a clip where the ball magnets rests and then it goes into the side of the tile. I show it in the video.

Yes, go check out Dragon's Rest--he made a travel edition of HeroQuest!
Hello, I'm not English, so I'm afraid I didn't understand correctly ... You have to pay an annual subscription on Patreon, to have access to stl? thank you very much for your help.

@@GameOver-ge2hr Those are from Fat Dragon Games: www.fatdragongames.com/fdgfiles/?page_id=3907 But Dragon's Rest also has torches but I have not printed them yet.
You turned HeroQuest into Modular Dungeon Tiles?
Yes, check out Part 2 and 3 to see how they are modular.
how much gold was spent making this?
How to I order Alt Quest??
It will be shipped to Kickstarter backers this fall and then should be available for retail after that. Or I'm sure there will be resellers on ebay.
Your spray paint is so cheap. Here in Australia we can get rustoleum brand paint, but those cans you say are less than $4 are the equivalent of over US$9
Do you have any local brands as alternatives? Rustoleum still has to be cheaper than Games Workshop.
I use a brand called Fiddly Bits from Bunnings our big hardware (home improvement) chain store. It is only about US$3 but the catch is the only flat colour is black, all the others are high gloss which is really suitable for painting over. I find black priming does work most of the time and for occasional use I do have a few cans of Rustoleum and British Paints which are a similar price to each other and are still much cheaper than Army Painter or Games Workshop.
Where are the links?
In the video description.
Heroquest has no SOLO and that is all I need to know -> it is useless.
There are a number of fan-made solo rules. This is just one of them: boardgamegeek.com/filepage/17188/heroquest-solo-coop-random-rulesdoc. Although honestly, I would rather play Sword and Sorcery solo over this.
@@gaminggeek241 Thanks, sadly only parts remain of my old heroquest.
