Are the newer quest packs and expansions compatible with the original 1989 or 1990 HeroQuest?

Several posters report the same compatibility picture, with caveats about tile size and renamed monsters.

Mostly yes. The 1990 North American set and the newer packs mix, with caveats: the new tiles use a larger square size, card sizes differ, Fimir have become Abominations, and Chaos Knights and Mages became Dread Knights and Mages. Rise of the Dread Moon is the one set that does not match the originals. The 1989 UK and European editions need a few tweaks.
