How to play?
Players manage their character actions using their investigator deck. The scenarios lead the campaigns, providing a captivating adventure.

Each round begins with the Mythos phase. In this phase, a horror token is placed on the agenda card, and each player draws a card from the encounter deck. If there is a curse on the game board, a check is made using the specified skill on the curse, and if you fail, a negative effect is triggered. If there is a monster on the board, it engages with the investigator, who will either have to fight it or attempt to evade it.

Then comes the Investigation phase, where players take 3 actions from the available options in any order:

Draw a card
Gain resources
Activate an action from a previously played card
Summon a monster to themselves
Attempt to evade a monster
Attack a monster
Attempt to gather clues
Move to another location
Play a card from hand for resources
After the players' turns, the Monster phase occurs. There are many different enemies, some move towards the heroes, and those that have already reached attack, automatically inflicting horror and wounds on the investigators.

At the end of the round, the Resting phase occurs, in which all players draw a card and gain one resource.

Who won?
Since the game is a team game, all players win or lose together. Players progress through the scenario and reach the conclusion. Some of them are more favorable and can be counted as a victory. Others leave the investigators in difficult and dangerous situations. Specific moments and consequences are directly related to the particular scenario.
