The frozen horror has burst forth from the icy tomb where it rested these last centuries, recovering its strength and awaiting Zargon's summons. At last, that call has come, and the raging beast has returned to its ancient seat of power deep within the ice mountain. As we speak, it is rallying its minions and mobilizing its plans to cover the Northlands and the Realm in a shroud of deadly ice. Barbarian, you must call on courage and skill you did not realize you had to confront the evil of the frozen horror! In HeroQuest: The Frozen Horror, an expansion for the HeroQuest Game System, you must journey through the bleak and frigid Northlands to destroy the evil frozen horror, a ferocious creature long banished. As the powerful barbarian, you are first challenged to survive dangerous solo quests to prove your strength and valor. Only then will your fellow heroes join you to gain access to the ice mountain to destroy the Scepter of Glacial Majesty and defeat the terrible monster.
