Explore stories which evolve with your choices, successes, and failures to tell a unique story either solo or with up to three of your friends. 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!
