Arkham Horror: The Card Game – The Scarlet Keys: Investigator Expansion

Description

--- <TLDR> The Scarlet Keys delivers Arkham Horror: The Card Game's first non-linear campaign with global mysteries, vanishing memories, new investigators, and time-constrained scenario choices (24 words). </TLDR> Key mechanics include: - *Non-linear campaign* After prologue, players select scenario order across the globe; not all playable in one run due to time threats. - *Time pressure* Greatest threat is time, limiting scenarios before finale. - *Investigator Expansion* Provides player cards, including six new investigators. - *Campaign Expansion* Contains only scenario cards, like Edge of the Earth structure. - *Narrative progression* Prologue and finale fixed; middle scenarios flexible under Red Coterie's scrutiny. The Scarlet Keys Campaign Expansion for Arkham Horror: The Card Game launches with mysterious Arkham disappearances of objects, animals, and people, erased from others' memories—except for investigators and an enigmatic letter's author. This sparks a globe-spanning, non-linear epic under the deadly Red Coterie's watch. Post-prologue, players dictate scenario paths, experiencing them in any order except fixed prologue and finale, though time constraints prevent completing all in one playthrough. The Investigator Expansion offers extensive new player cards and six investigators; the Campaign Expansion delivers scenario cards exclusively, mirroring Edge of the Earth’s split, vastly expanding the game's world. ---
