Heroscape a household name?
Posted September 17th, 2010 at 06:12 PM by Chardar
The other day I was looking at game in the app store that I had considered buying. Like any smart shopper I read the reviews, and that's when I found this.
I thought it was interesting that they'd included Heroscape with Dnd. Dnd is a household name that anyone will easily recognize, but heroscape is not. I think that this is a very good sign that heroscape is catching on more and more. The fact that this person would think to use heroscape as a comparison then it has to be a regular game somewhere. Even if it's not it made my day. (Unless of course someone here wrote it, then it's still a good sign, but doesn't have quite the same meaning). Also I have no idea what Gurps is, but I intend to find out. So hopefully someone will do the same with heroscape.
I ended up buying the app. It's not exactly like dnd and definitely not exactly like heroscape, but the similarities are there. It's called "Rimelands: Hammer of Thor" if you want to check it out. I'd give it 4/5.

GURPS: General Universal Role Playing System (Steve Jackson Games).
All games will one day be assimilated into Heroscape. You have already been assimilated. Have a nice day. Join our cult--you have no choice! |
