Comments / Trivia
The first edition of Arkham Investigator has two versions (essentially two printings) with different covers; the second edition retitles the game as Mythos Tales.
This game is modeled after the 1980's game Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, although they are not officially connected.
While Arkham Investigator has two cases, Mythos Tales is expected to have at least eight.
Not to be confused with Cthulhu Tales, an unrelated game.
