Summary
Mythos Tales is a game of macabre detection and Lovecraftian horror for 1 - 8 players by Hal Eccles and Will Kenyon. In Mythos Tales, players take on the role of private investigators in Lovecraft’s Arkham, tasked with solving a series horrifying mysteries. As detectives, players may either play competitively, or players may play cooperatively against Miskatonic's erudite librarian, Dr. Henry Armitage, pitting wits against a master detective! Each investigation takes between 60-120 minutes to complete, and the game will include 8 investigations.
Comments / Trivia
The first edition of Arkham Investigator had two versions (with different covers) before the Kickstarter for the second edition, retitled Mythos Tales.
This game was modeled after the 1980's game Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, although they are not officially connected.
While Arkham Investigator had two cases, Mythos Tales is planned to have at least eight.
Not to be confused with Cthulhu Tales, an unrelated game.
