Arkham Horror: The Card Game: A Feast in Hemlock Vale. Investigators
About the game
'Arkham Horror: The Card Game' is a cooperative Living Card Game set in the myths of Lovecraft, where 1-2 investigators (and with a second set – 3-4) will jointly become acquainted with the world of occultism, ancient gods, and secrets, while also battling their inner demons from the past.
Each player takes on the role of one investigator and builds their own deck based on their character's abilities. The gameplay is centered around interconnected scenarios that set the pace for the game and create a narrative. Games in this setting are incredibly atmospheric! The set of scenarios turns into a campaign. In each scenario, investigators find themselves in various locations and explore them in search of clues needed to advance the investigation and uncover secrets.
During the game, investigators encounter opponents and curses, trying to overcome all adversities and defeat the enemies of the Mythos. Throughout the campaign, each investigator gains experience, allowing players to enhance capabilities and gain new options by adding stronger cards to their deck.
The further and deeper you delve into the world of the unknown, the closer your madness becomes! Players must keep an eye on the sanity of their investigators, protect them from horrors and monsters encountered along the way, and uncover the mystery of Arkham!

How to play?
Players manage the actions of characters through their investigator deck. Scenarios lead the campaigns, offering an exciting adventure.
Each round starts with the Myth phase. During this phase, a horror token is placed on the agenda card, and each player draws a card from the contact deck. If there is a curse on the game card, a check of the specified skill on the curse is made, and if you fail, a negative effect is triggered. If there’s a monster on the card, it is assigned to the investigator, who must either fight it or try to slip away.
Then comes the Investigation phase, where players take turns performing 3 actions from the available options:

- Draw a card
- Gain resources
- Activate an ability from a previously drawn card
- Summon a monster to yourself
- Attempt to evade a monster
- Attack a monster
- Attempt to gather clues
- Move to another location
- Play a card from hand for resources
- After players' turns, the Monsters phase begins. There are many different opponents, some enemies move towards the heroes, while those that have already approached attack, automatically inflicting horror and wounds on investigators.

At the end of the round, the Rest phase occurs, during which all players draw a card and receive one resource each.
Who won?
Since this is a team game, all players win or lose together. Players progress through the scenario until they reach a resolution. Some of them are more favorable and can be considered a victory. Others leave investigators in difficult and dangerous situations. Specific moments and consequences are directly tied to the specific scenario.
