Great game for beginners!
I am quite new to board games and I wanted something interesting to play with my flatmate during the lockdown. The game is quite challenging and offers different difficulties. Even though the campaign felt a little bit short (about 2 hours for each of the 3 scenarios), no campaign feels the same because of the option to choose different characters and difficulties, as well as options that have their consequences and resolutions. As with all luck-based games, it can be quite frustrating at times but nothing too crazy.PROS: co-operative (you all play against the game rather than each-other), quite dynamic, fast-progressing rounds; interesting and detailed storyline to really enhance the role-playing experience; beautiful artwork; good mechanics for beginners; customisation options with DLCs and expansion packs;CONS: game rules can be quite tricky and hard to learn at the beginning, we had to look up a few instances online; if you're looking for a long-winded, intricate campaign then this is definitely not the game for you (although with DLCs and expansion packs it could be); luck plays a big role so no matter how good you character is you can still lose; some cards have weird wording on them so it's useful to look up online what they meanOVERALL: I would definitely recommend this game if you're into similar role-playing, storyline games.As for the materials themselves, the game looks well-made and printed on nice stock :).

One core is enough to get by, two core sets allow more expansive deck building
You can easily get by with just the one core set for the game, but I wanted to buy a second core set as I felt that the extra copy of cards for 'Agnes Baker' in particular was definitely needed. For example there is a spell called 'Shriveling' which has four charges. That's pretty much the only way that Agnes and Daisy (the Seeker investigator which can use Mystic class-cards) can reliably do damage to enemies. So if you can't find that one copy of the card you feel pretty helpless, especially Daisy given her low evade/agility stats and health.It is a fantastic game however. I was not a fan of the whole Cthulhu mythos but I am a fan of co-operative board games. Having played Netrunner for a couple of years, I was curious as to how a co-operative Living Card Game (LCG) by Fantasy Flight Games (FFG) would work. Having watched the demo online last year, I was sold. There is great depth in the core set, which gives you enough classes/investigators to try out before deciding on whether purchasing a second core set (which was my case) and/or 'The Dunwich Legacy' big-box expansion. From there, you can purchase the monthly mythos packs to continue on the story which starts with 'The Dunwich Legacy' box.Scales well from one to four players; great game to play solo or even with your significant other.Just a word about whom I purchased the game from: My friendly local game store had been unable to get the game in stock (given it's popularity) and found 'Shop4World' selling the game around £5 cheaper than everyone else. Surely too good to be true? Turned out much better than I thought!Ordered around 11pm on Thursday night, arrived on Tuesday morning over a bank holiday weekend in Ireland. Delivery was so fast, the money for my purchase hadn't left my account by the time it had arrived! Delighted with the speed of delivery (as you might know) and cheaper than most other suppliers. Could not be happier!

Great game
Lets get the negative out of the way firstThe cons:It has a very steep learning curve, I recommend watching some YouTube videos there are a load of them(the Arkham Chronicle ones are very clear and entertaining to boot) but once you get your head around them you'll be okay.It's brutal... prepare to fail. I have no idea how anyone could survive on hard or expert! But it is very tough.Okay now lets get positive. You maybe wondering why I've given the game 5 stars with cons. It's because once you learn the rules it's not a problem and if I went through the story in one sitting it wouldn't be any fun at all, but for you if you get frustrated with games you can't pick up right away or that are tough on you maybe this isn't the game for you.The Pros:The story is very well done. The artwork on the cards is excellent. The gameplay is loads of fun with unpredictable events and challenges. Don't worry about replay value. Okay once you have played through the first time you will know the story but trying it with different characters and difficulties + deck building and fan made scenarios on boardgamegeek will keep you busy

Good game but if you think you'll like it get the revised edition
This edition of Arkham horror is for 2 players only, it's a great way to experience the system and see if you like it. If like me you do enjoy it and want more though you might regret not going for the revised edition which plays up to 4 and is more user friendly for beginners.3 mission campaign included is a good experience but realistically you'll need expansion content to really get the most out of this box.The campaign is replayable but alot of the fun comes from the discovery element of the game/story. A full run of the three missions takes about 4 or 5 hours, I've replayed the campaign twice now and there are increased difficulties you can try and different results depending on how you perform but realistically what's included here will give you about 20-30 hours of game.

Worth it!!
Have been looking at this game for a while and after reading a lot of reviews and watching a lot of game play decided to give it a go while it was on sale and it’s totally worth it!! The set up is a little lengthy but once you get in to it it’s so easy and so much fun! Rules are easy to follow and easy to pick up and have already found expansions and extra characters that can be added. 10/10

High Quality
I have played through the beginner campaign twice with the girlfriend with different investigators. It's really challenging, but still rewarding even if you feel you failed. Be sure to learn the rules during your first playthroughs as far as possible. It is very technical, but gets easier as you play more. Planning on getting all the expansion sets too. Already have Dunwich and Carcosa, which adds some investigators and investigator cards to give you options for deck building. Replayability is high.

Arkham!
Dicen que esta campaña y Circle Undone son las más difíciles de todo Arkham Horror LCG. Por suerte la encontré barata.

Cho is tough
Cho is overpowered during encounters and not great at finding clues or running away.I have play a few rounds with him and he is unstoppable in a fight.The downside in a group is he kind of steals the show when facing encounters. If the other members of your group like to battle aspect of Arkham, and you are playing Cho you may annoy them. However, if you playing in a group and getting knocked out: adding Cho will help.

Excepcional
Produto excepcional e envio muito rápido.Só não gostei do embrulho que não protegeu a caixa do jogo e chegou arranhada devido ao transporte.
