Arkham Horror: LCG Grundspiel - DE

This product is not a new edition or reissue. 'Fear is the oldest and strongest human emotion, and the oldest and strongest fear is the fear of the unknown. 'HP Lovecraft In the sleepy town of Arkham, Massachusetts, a small group of investigators seek to uncover the nature of a sinister menace threatening humanity. But beware! The arcane realms hold numerous terrors, and investigators must guard against losing their fragile sanity and survive. Something evil is stirring in Arkham and only you can stop it. Arkham Horror: The Card Game blurs the traditional boundaries between RPGs and card games. The game thrives on cooperative investigations and is designed for 1'2 players, but can also be played by four people with two basic sets. You are in tranquil New England, in tranquil Arkham, and slip into the role of characters who live there. Of course everyone has their talents, but everyone also has their quirks. Perhaps someone has delved a little too deeply into the contents of the Necronomicon and the words are now haunting them. No matter what draws you in or haunts you, both your strengths and weaknesses will be reflected in your custom deck. This deck will serve as your resource as you work with your friends to uncover the world's most dangerous and terrifying mysteries. This game is a blend of a traditional Living Card Game® and role-playing experiences, even more so than similar games before it. You slip into the role of an investigator and build your deck to reflect your strengths and resources. And yet, all investigators in the LCG have their own individual personality that comes with special deck building requirements. Perhaps the adventures will scare you, rob you of your sanity as madness slowly creeps around the corners of your mind. You will certainly make decisions that may end work with your allies. Maybe you'll change Arkham's landscape, burn buildings to their foundations. And you may also gain experience that will better prepare you for the adventures to come. The base game offers three different adventures that are combined in the campaign The Night of the Zealot. Your success or failure in the first adventure, The Gathering, will not only set the stage for adventures to come, but will also determine how much experience you can spend on upgrading your deck.
