Call of Cthulhu LCG

Secrets of Arkham Expansion

Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game, a Living Card Game, is set in the universe of H.P.Lovecraft. Investigators, members of the syndicate as well as teachers and students of Miscatonic University confront the horrors of alien world like Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Shub Niggurath or even Cthulhu itself. Das Core Set features vor ready-to-play pre-constructed decks. Using Asylum Packs and expansions you can adapt those core decks to your individual preferences and strategies.

The Secrets of Arkham Expansion is more than an Asylum Pack, it holds 110 cards and introduces a new Story Deck, 6 new cards for each faction and 8 neutral cards, that can be used by each of the factions, into the game. The Story Deck is meant to replace the story deck introduced with the Core Set. It brings simple but very powerful effects which can have a very large impact on the game. Some of these effects are based on the Day and Night mechanism that was forst introduced into Call of Cthulhu in the Dreamlands Asylum Pack Cycle.

From the neurat cards, for instance, Diseased Sewer Rats and Feint enable players to take card of threats, Azathoth and Dimensional Rift can be used to destroy all characters in play.

The Living Card Game System allows each player to customize his deck using expansions and Asylum packs, which always come in cycles made up from 6 packs, according to his own ideas without having to consider rarity and availability of cards. Each box holds the same cards! The seven factions offer many und very different strategic possibilities and so many good reasons to play again. A feast for specialists!
