Hello! My girlfriend bought me a set of HeroQuest for my birthday (4th july), but as we both couldn't wait, we started playing yesterday :P
We played the Maze and the Sir Ragnar quests. I have the Dutch original version, so there might be differences with the USA/UK version.
Some questions came up, that I couldn't find in the rulebook:

- In the Maze, I started with 4 characters in all 4 corners of the board. If I would start my turn with searching for hidden traps and doors, how far would I be able to see them? All the way through the corridor to the other side of the board? (assuming there are no cave-ins)

- When do I spot a normal door? From same corridor, or when directly next to it in passing? or 1,2,3 squares removed?

- Does the Fire of Wrath spell overrule the rule that you can only cast a spell on a monster you can see? (after the alarm went of in the Ragnar quest, all doors opened and all monsters were placed on the board. Could I have used it then? And does the same go for the Genie spell?)

- There was more, but I'll post it later if it comes to mind...
