Who it's for

For people who want a long-running story game whose decks they keep refining between sessions.

Not for you if…

Vibe's take

Tense, narrative, punishing, deeply replayable

About this game

This is the new core set for Arkham Horror: The Card Game, the box that opens Chapter Two of the line. One to four investigators build personal decks, walk into a 1920s Arkham that has just survived a catastrophe, and play a campaign in which failure changes what happens next rather than ending the evening.
