Introduction: The boundaries between worlds have drawn perilously thin... In the sleepy town of Arkham, Massachusetts, a small band of intrepid investigators seeks to uncover the nature of a sinister menace that threatens humanity. But beware! The arcane realm holds countless terrors, and the investigators must take care to maintain a tenuous grip upon their very sanity, and survive. Arkham Horror: The Card Game is a one to four player cooperative game in which each player assumes the role of an investigator and attempts to solve terrifying eldritch mysteries. Each game is a chapter in a longer campaign in which decisions carry far-reaching and unexpected consequences. As a Living Card Game, new cards and adventures are released regularly, allowing players to customize the contents of this core set, or to create their own original decks. The Ancient Ones await. Can you uncover their secrets and live to tell the tale? Arkham Horror: The Card Game is a cooperative Living Card Game set amid a backdrop of Lovecraftian horror. As the Ancient Ones seek entry to our world, one to four investigators work to unravel arcane mysteries and conspiracies. Their efforts determine not only the course of your game, but carry forward throughout whole campaigns, challenging them to overcome their personal demons even as Arkham Horror: The Card Game blurs the distinction between the card game and roleplaying experiences. For new players that haven’t yet experienced the cooperative investigations and gripping campaigns of Arkham Horror: The Card Game, there’s no better place to start than the Revised Core Set! With a single copy of the Revised Core Set, players have everything they need to start playing with one to four players— just by picking a pre-built investigator deck and leaping into the first scenario of the Night of the Zealot campaign included in this Core Set. Once they’ve completed those three scenarios, there are plenty of options for choosing their next campaign—the Revised Core Set is fully compatible with all previously released Arkham Horror: The Card Game products.
