What is Arkham Horror (Third Edition)

The year is 1926, and it is the height of the Roaring Twenties. Flappers dance till dawn in smoke-filled speakeasies, drinking alcohol supplied by rum runners and the mob. It’s a celebration to end all celebrations in the aftermath of the War to End All Wars.

Yet a dark shadow grows in the city of Arkham. Alien entities known as Ancient Ones lurk in the emptiness beyond space and time, writhing at the thresholds between worlds. Occult rituals must be stopped and alien creatures destroyed before the Ancient Ones make our world their ruined dominion.

Only a handful of investigators stand against the Arkham Horror. Will they prevail?

Arkham Horror (Third Edition) is a cooperative board game for one to six players who take on the roles of investigators trying to rid the world of eldritch beings known as Ancient Ones. Based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft, players will have to gather clues, defeat terrifying monsters, and find tools and allies if they are to stand any chance of defeating the creatures that dwell just beyond the veil of our reality.

Very good game, my girlfriend and i love HP Lovecraft, and this is a very good game from that universe.

Una maravilla. + Gran asociación entre temática y mecánica. + Componentes de gran calidad. + Gran narratividad. + Buen diseño de la IA. Desafiante, pero no imposible de derrotar. - Ausencia de inserto. Lo que entorpece el set up. - Saldrán infinitas expansiones. - Cartas en tamaños extraños que no permiten enfundar.

Me gusta el tema y que la marrativa está más "enfocada" que en su hermano Eldritch Horror, pero siento que tomo pocas decisiones por minuto/turno y que para narrativa prefiero el rol.
