The Stars Are Right!

The Classic Game of Lovecraftian Monster Hunting Returns!

The town of Arkham, Massachusetts is in a panic. Horrific and bizarre events have begun to occur with increasing frequency—all seeming to point towards some cataclysmic event in the near future that may spell disaster for everyone. Only one small band of investigators can save Arkham from the Great Old Ones and destruction!

Arkham Horror was originally published by Chaosium, Inc. almost two decades ago. This new, updated edition features stunning new artwork and graphical design as well as revised and expanded rules! No fan of the Cthulhu Mythos will want to miss this opportunity to acquire this classic Call of Cthulhu boardgame!

Arkham Horror is a cooperative game for 1-8 players ages 12 and up, and can be played in 2-3 hours.

User Reviews:

Arkham Horror Board Game rating: 4/5 stars Complex but Rewarding

Arkham combines tense action with cooperation against the game itself, which can vary between impossibly hard and childishly simple. While bringing new players up to speed is a chore due to the complex rule system, gameplay is addictive and victory is rarely assured, but vastly rewarding. The game is best played with 4 players, and the difficulty increases with fewer or more players, with more players leading to some unavoidable lulls between turns. Gameplay typically lasts between 2 and 4 hours, and the game's immersive history and storytelling keeps players invested. The expansion scale the game, in both difficulty and playability, and the game is rarely, if ever, repetitive. An excellent game, but a definite time investment.
