"Good co-op game."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Like most ffg good quality components and cool artwork. Always good to play a co-op game that scales well between 1 –4 players. The actual game might be a little too easy for experienced players

"Cooperative Gaming At Its Best"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game is great! Basically a dice based RPG in a box, all the pieces are easy to use and you can learn how to play relatively quickly. Investigating an old museum, fighting the evil dark forces and trying desperately to together defeat the Ancient One that threatens to devour the world. This is a game for the adults to enjoy and one that provides a ton of intrigue, strategy and teamwork. Worth every penny.

"Good introduction to Arkham games"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Excellent high quality game for those wanting to get into Arkham (Elder Sign, Eldritch Horror, Arkham Horror)-style games. 30–60 minute play time, can be played solo or with friends. Personally I would have liked a physical board, but otherwise really good.

Description

It is 1926, and the museum’s exotic curios and occult artifacts open barriers between our world and the elder evils lurking between dimensions. Other Worlds begin to leak through and terrifying creatures of increasing strength steal through them. Animals, the mad, and those of susceptible minds are driven to desperation by the supernatural forces that the portals unleash. In the midst of this chaos, a handful of investigators race against time to locate the eldritch symbols necessary to seal the portals forever and stop evil Ancient Ones from reducing humanity to cinders.

Elder Sign is a fast-paced, cooperative dice game of supernatural intrigue for one to eight players by Richard Launius and Kevin Wilson, the designers of Arkham Horror. Players take the roles of investigators racing against time to stave off the imminent return of the Ancient Ones. Armed with cards for tools, allies, and occult knowledge, investigators must put their sanity and stamina to the test as they adventure to locate Elder Signs, the eldritch symbols used to seal away the Ancient Ones and win the game.
