InQuest Gamer
InQuest Gamer is a prominent monthly gaming magazine. Originally, the magazine was named InQuest and focused solely on collectible card games; InQuest, along with its competitor Scrye, were the two major CCG magazines. Later, the magazine changed its focus to cover a wider range of games, including role-playing games, computer and video games, collectible miniature games, board games, and others. The magazine is published by Wizard Entertainment.
InQuest #0, the first issue, was published in April 1995. For issue #46 (February 1999), InQuest changed its name to InQuest Gamer (with Gamer in big text on the cover), clearly announcing that it was a magazine about games. Issue #53 made the InQuest title more prominent on the cover again and it has not been changed since then.
InQuest uses a casual and sometimes humorous style that has been attributed as a reason for its early popularity. Typical content includes news, strategy articles, a price guide for collectible games, and reference lists.
