Arkham Horror

Big fan of Arkham Horror, Eldritch Horror, or Elder Signs?

The game board is set in Lovecraft's fictional city of Arkham during 1926. Street, building and outdoor locations are featured, as well as otherworldly locations that investigators can venture into. Players each have an investigator, represented by a character card. Each investigator has several attributes (such as "sanity"), and cards representing items, spells, and other things. As game play progresses, gates to these other worlds open and are represented by tokens placed on the board. Monsters from the other worlds enter through the gates and wander the city. The investigators travel through the city, avoiding or fighting the monsters, visiting city locations to acquire tools, and ultimately entering the gates. After traveling through the other world and returning, the investigator can try to close the gate. While exploring city locations or other worlds, the investigators face random events which may benefit or harm them. As gates open, a "Doom Track" advances; if the track reaches its end, a powerful horrific creature known as the Ancient One breaks through into Arkham. In the 1987 edition of the game, this ends the game, and all players lose. In the 2005 edition, this (in most cases) begins an endgame in which the players have a small chance to defeat the creature and win; otherwise they lose.

Eldritch Horror is a tabletop strategy board game published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2013. The players explore locales around the world filled with Lovecraftian horrors.

Players fight an ancient evil stirring from its slumber and must seal off this awakening horror before it's too late. Players travel around the globe battling monsters, solving mysteries, and equipping up, all to banish the Ancient One threatening to destroy the world.
