Serving simultaneously as both a continuation and a fresh starting point, this new core set heralds the beginning of Chapter Two for the game. Taking place several months after the city of Arkham suffered a devastating calamity, this box provides a new introductory campaign, five mechanically-new investigators, and a fresh card pool to expand your collection—or start a new one!
Whether you’re an Arkham Horror veteran or a newcomer looking to get into the game, you won’t want to miss out on this new core set. This core set will replace the Revised Core Set from 2021 and become the new evergreen core experience for the game going forward. That said, all player content in this box is fully compatible with all previously-released Arkham Horror: The Card Game products—it is still the same game, after all!

VHS – VERY HORROR STORIES Demons, monsters and bloodthirsty killers lurk in the darkest recesses of our world, inhumane beings who know only violence and, driven by vengeance or evil, wish for only one thing. The suffering of their prey. Yours. Take up your torches, venture in their own realms and do what you can to make it out alive. VHS: Very Horror Stories is a Horror Role Play Game inspired by ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s classics such as Hellraiser, Nightmare, Alien, Halloween and many more, coming in three stand-alone boxed sets that allow you to play in a different subgenre of Horror each. Bloodlust, slasher movies; Overplague, horror sci-fi; Unchained, supernatural horror.

Press Play… and Scream! Each VHS can be played alone without needing the other two. The basic rules are contained in each box, but for each VHS change (in addition to the contents) the adaptation rules to different settings, the lists of traits, the special abilities and the customization guidelines.

Welcome to Unchained, the VHS dedicated to supernatural horror. Prepare to fight demons from other dimensions, immortal tormentors and fanatical cults praying for hell to swallow our world.

No amulet against their curses. No blade or gun to harm their hellforged forms. No place cleansed enough to stop the contamination borne by their black souls. This is Unchained and here skeptics are the first to die.

This is a plain-text, black-and-white version of Infærnum, focusing on readability. It features the same content as the hardcover edition, with a softcover and lower MSRP.

Infærnum is a rules-lite RPG focused on apocalyptic themes. Everything starts with a major event: a prophecy that triggers the end of times. Over seven days (in the narrative), players must face all challenges and reach the promised land before the end of all things, facing the four horsemen and other tropes of the Book of Revelation.
Or not. In this highly original game, you define your own vision of the Apocalypse. It can work with any campaign or setting for any system besides the standalone premise presented by the game. That means you can simply use Infaernum on top of your current RPG campaign, whatever system that might be, to explore an end-of-world scenario. It’s essentially your doomsday device and toolbox.
The book also includes a vast collection of optional rules, supplements, and settings that make Infaernum the ultimate doomsday device. You pick and choose what you want to use according to how you want to play at any given moment. It includes modes inspired by popular games and tropes like Shadow of the Colossus, Diablo, Dark Souls, and Cyberpunk 2077, plus alternate ways to play, which include a dungeon crawler element, an enemy generator, ways to use decks of regular playing cards and even a Tarot Arcana, as well a sneak peek into 1,000 years AFTER the end of your world! Mix and match them as you want for the most insane results! This award-winning Role-Playing experience can fit any style or setting for Solo, Co-Op, or Guided play. Not for the faint of heart.

The game is adventure-based, with each Adventure branching out into a number of Plots revealed depending on the players’ narrative choices. Each plot offers unique game mechanics and stories that can be found in the Book of Tales – some of them are keyed to a particular adventure, some are generic, but all enable the players to immerse themselves in the setting and make decisions that change the world around them.

Each knight (player) has 2 actions at their disposal, which basically enable them to travel around the continent in their Vehicle, explore the area for ever-dwindling Resources (Fuel, Ammo, Meds), or camp in order to repair their Gear and heal Wounds or Radiation. Each adventure additionally offers a number of unique Plot Actions that let the players affect the story and fulfill their goals.

However, the heart of the game are stories. Each playthrough is based on an adventure found in the Guide. Some of them are co-op, others competitive, others still may end with the players grouping around different factions and forced to fight their former friends. The construction of each adventure offers lots of narrative choices guaranteeing high replayability and encompasses unique setup elements so that the basic game can be prepared quickly and the players can focus on the plot, not the rules.
