For a brief time, Games Workshop and Milton Bradley collaborated on a couple of games. Heroquest is the most popular. Similar to early D&D, players take the characters of various archetypal fantasy figures and probe a dungeon encountering traps, monsters, and treasure. Plastic accessories and cardboard counters allowed players to decorate the dungeon according to the outline in a book of dungeon maps. Players and monsters were represented by plastic figures in the best Games Workshop tradition. One player served as dungeon master.

There were several supplements for the game both here and in Europe. The game begs for expansion. It should be relatively easy to design new and even more impressive dungeons. A guide was supposed to have been published in Europe outlining this.

Currently, there is talk of a reprint although old copies of the game can still be readily found. Some of the supplements are far more difficult to locate.
