Description

Across the globe, ancient evil is stirring, and it's up to you and your fellow investigators to hold back the approaching horror. In Eldritch Horror, one to eight players work together to solve mysteries, gather clues, and protect the world from an Ancient One intent on destroying it. Each Ancient One has its own unique decks of Mystery and Research cards, drawing you deeper into the lore surrounding each creature. As you travel the world, you'll encounter foul monsters, brutal encounters, and obscure mysteries that will take you to your limit. With each turn, you'll resolve combat, build your investigator's story, or uncover helpful clues. But beware, failing an encounter can result in physical or mental trauma, and the arrival of the Ancient One is always looming, introducing new threats and pressure to solve the mysteries before it's too late.
