Dark Quest 2 - A nod to the legendary board and video game Hero Quest


Way back in the early 90's a fantastic top down game based on an original board game was released by Gremlin, that became hugely popular to the point of receiving great reviews and ending up as one of the top most recommended games to have in any retro collection. That game was none other than ' Hero Quest ', a video game adaptation with a great soundtrack, of the fantasy board-game from Games Workshop and Milton Bradley. So you'll have to forgive my over excitement as I have just found out that ' Dark Quest 2 ' developed by Brain Seal Ltd, which is a turn based RPG inspired by that legendary game, is available to purchase on Steam!


' Dark Quest 2 ' could almost be described as the definite HD version of Hero Quest, as not only does it have that turn based RPG charm we have come to admire, but it features a party based system where you control up to 3 heroes, an isometric hand-drawn art style and dice based mechanics for all computations. So those of you who have played the original game, could well feel at home with this inspirational top down release by Brain Seal Ltd
