| − | In Elder Sign, 1 to 8 players take on the role of investigators struggling to combat one of the Ancient Ones — vast, powerful creatures that dwell in the space between dimensions. By rolling a pool of special dice, players will face the adventures in and around the museum that has become the focal point of these strange creatures. The investigators' courage and skill will earn rewards, the most prized of which is an Elder Sign, the eldritch symbol used to seal away the Ancient One and win the game. But the clock is always ticking and each night at midnight, the Ancient One gets closer to waking up. If the investigators take too long to seal it away, the Ancient One awakens and humanity is almost certainly doomed!
