A
new play is coming to Miskatonic University, and anyone who's anyone
will be there for the opening performance. However, there's something
sinister about this play, and the people who see it come back a
little...different. As if the investigators didn't have enough to worry
about before, now they must deal with the mind-warping effects of the
King in Yellow, a play that tells a tale of madness and horror, opening
a door for the Tattered King to enter through. This expansion
introduces a major new mechanic to Arkham Horror - Heralds, who prepare
the way for the Ancient One to arrive. In addition, old familiar faces
will be turned against the investigators in ways they never expected.
Featuring over 160 new cards, the King in Yellow heralds a darker age
for Arkham Horror fans.
Product Description
The infamous theatrical play "The King in Yellow," has come to Arkham
to steal the sanity of those who watch it. With it come artists who
paint things that cannot be, writers who dream of black stars, and
madmen who wish to drag the rest of humanity into the dark abyss.
Lording over all of them is the King in Yellow himself. With the
townsfolk being corrupted by the baleful yellow signs, can a few
courageous investigators stop the King in Yellow before madness takes
its toll? THE KING IN YELLOW is an expansion for the ARKHAM HORROR
board game by Fantasy Flight Games. This expansion features 1 Herald
Sheet, 1 sheet of tokens, 90 new Ancient One cards, and 76 new
Investigator cards, including new Items, new Spells, and the terrible
blighted Allies.
