Arkham Horror: The Card Game is one of the highest-rated card games ever made. Published by Fantasy Flight Games, Arkham Horror: The Card Game is one of the titles in their well-regarded Living Card Game (LCG) line. This game is one of the best ways for intrepid players to dive into a dark world of mystery and horror.

Based on the 20th century stories of horror-writer H. P. Lovecraft, Arkham Horror: The Card Game is an adaptation of the widely loved board game, Arkham Horror. The card game takes the principles of the original and distils it into one of the best-executed card games ever produced.

1-2 players each choose a starting character from the quiet town of Arkham. For their own reasons, these characters are driven to investigate disturbances of a horrifying, otherworldly nature, with unspeakable monsters straining to break through the dimensional barrier and consume our world. When you find these monsters, will you be prepared?

The players and their characters embark on a journey of fear and discovery, with gameplay driven by a combination of deck-building, role-playing elements and action selection. When you start out, you might be using pre-constructed decks, but as you get better at the game you can go back to scenarios with your own decks custom-built to take them on. The characters will always have their unique cards and identities but beyond a handful of these limitations, the choice is yours.

Along with the cards in hand, you also have a number of actions to choose from each turn. These add character and life to the game, allowing you to play the role of your character and not be trapped by the cards you draw. But whatever you choose, remember that your unspeakable opponents will be advancing their own nefarious agendas, so you can’t take too long…

There are few games out there that capture the thrill of mystery and fear as well as Arkham Horror: The Card Game. When that is combined with rock-solid gameplay, you have a truly excellent gaming experience on your hands. What are you waiting for? Dive into the world of mystery and madness today.
