Summary

Welcome to H.P. Lovecraft's Arkham, the 1920s. There will be many mysteries to uncover in this storytelling game of Lovecraftian terror. Using the provided newspaper, a list of allies, the directory of Arkham residents and a map of Arkham - your job is to follow the clues from location to location, suspect to suspect - to unravel the mystery and answer the questions posed at the end of each scenario.

Your score will depend upon the number of clues points you needed to visit, the risks you took to your sanity in your investigations and your ability to find the correct answers to the questions.

Match wits with Armitage's final score the man who has been exposed to the sanity-blasting truth about the existence of the age old evil! Can you beat his score?

With that in mind it is time to collaborate with Armitage’s investigations to complete your training. This is not a typical board game: No dice, no luck, but a challenge to your mental ability.

Comments / Trivia

The working title of Arkham Investigator was Arkham: Consulting Detective.

This game is modeled after the 1980's game Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, although they are not officially connected.

Arkham Investigator is a print-and-play game, with the game made available in PDF format and printed by players.

The first case for Arkham Investigator, A Grain of Evil, is included with the core game. The second case, The King Cometh, is available separately.

The first edition of Arkham Investigator has two versions (essentially two printings) with different covers; the second edition retitles the game as Mythos Tales.
