Hasbro would at least offer them enough that it would cost them less than paying their lawyers to take down Gamezone.

That’s kind of a standard practice.

And that is specifically what they changed. They went from saying “this is a new edition of Hero Quest” to “This is a tribute to Hero Quest.” And they certainly weren’t up front about things- they told us that they were contacted by the Heroquest RPG people and said that they would soon make a deal with them and everyone would be happy- the HeroQuest RPG people said “no, that’s not what happened” and shortly after, the campaign was shut down.

I really didn’t think it was controversial to say that Gamezone misrepresents things.
