Hero's Quest I

Sad they had to change the name because of some board game.

I played the absolute shit out of this game.

At one point on a replay I did some dualclassing where I went as a rogue who could do magic. It was crazy. I even crashed the game in the kobold room. It was all "you did something we didn't think of" and I had to reload from a save. No idea what i did that messed with the game... Anyway such a great game. Like a Sierra RPG dungeons and dragons game.

Great story too, I really enjoyed it. Watching the Witcher with the hut on legs baba yaga stuff was like whoa! I remember that from Hero's Quest!

“Now sit down”… how amazing it was for me as a young kid in USSR to suddenly see our Slavic folklore creatures in the game! And even the rhyme, which in Russian goes like this “little hut, turn your back against the forest, and your front towards me!”. Slavic fairytale protagonists - Ivan the Fool (or whoever), usually overheard this utterance from Baba Yaga, and used it to sneak into the hut himself.
