OVERVIEW OF ARKHAM HORROR 

Within Arkham, something evil has begun to stir, and only you can stop it. Players become characters that inhabit the small New England town. Each has their talents and their flaws, both reflected within their deck of cards. The players must work together in order to close the doors that separate your world from the ancient ones. If you cannot work together as a team, then your world is what will be lost.   온카지노

SETUP 

To begin setup, remove all items from the box. Place the game board in the middle of the playing area, unfolded. On one end of the board, place the nine location decks, the gate deck, the mythos deck, the ancient one sheet, the doom tokens, the gate markers, the monster markers, the clue tokens, and the other makers. They should all be placed in their own stack. On the other end of the board, the money bank, the sanity and stamina bank, the special investigator deck, and the ally deck, common item deck, unique item deck, spell deck, and skill deck should all be placed in their own stack.  

A clue token is placed on all of the unstable locations on the board, there should be eleven of them. Each player will collect their investigator sheet and their marker. They will then collect stamina and sanity tokens that equal the players maximum. Each player will then collect the possessions of their chosen investigator. All investigator markers that are being used are placed on the board on their home locations. The starter player marker is given to the player that the group volunteers to go first, and the game is ready to begin.  

GAMEPLAY 

The game is divided into five phases. Beginning with the first player, each round will continue clockwise around the group. When a phase is completed, the next phase immediately begins. The first player marker is passed to the left.  

Phase 1 

During the upkeep phase, players will refresh exhausted cards, perform upkeep actions, and adjust skills. Players begin by turning exhausted cards face up. After cards have been refreshed, the investigator cards are referred to in order to complete upkeep actions. All of them that are listed must be completed. Players may finally adjust the skills of their investigator using the skill sliders.  

Phase 2 

During the movement phase, the player will take an Arkham movement or Other Worlds Movement depending on where their investigator is in Arkham or the Other World.
