HeroQuest II: Legacy of Sorasil | Retro Reviews

A retrospective review of Gremlin's 1994 dungeon crawler, which was a direct sequel to 1991's HeroQuest. Looks at the game's slightly convoluted development, how the gameplay and presentation differed from the first game, and its awkward relationship with the HeroQuest licence. Also compares HeroQuest II to two more recent HeroQuest-inspired computer adaptations - Dark Quest and Warhammer Quest. Timestamps are below. Next video will be the alternate history action game Crimson Skies. 00:00 Opening 01:08 Part 1 - Introduction and History 01:19 1.1 - Overview 03:44 1.2 - Development History 20:04 Part 2 - Gameplay 20:26 2.1 - Gameplay Basics 31:34 2.2 - Gameplay Analysis 51:59 2.3 - Warhammer Quest and Dark Quest 59:44 Part 3 - Art and Sound 1:00:03 3.1 - Visuals 1:08:46 3.2 - Audio and Music 1:13:44 3.3 - HeroQuest II on modern systems 1:15:52 Part 4 - Story and Writing 1:16:13 4.1 - Story Overview 1:20:07 4.2 - Story Analysis 1:31:11 Part 5 - Outro and Acknowledgements
