About this expansion

Arkham Horror: The Card Game – In The Clutches of Chaos: Mythos Pack is a 1–2 player scenario for the Arkham Horror card game, with an approximately 120-minute play time.

As the fifth Mythos Pack in The Circle Undone cycle, it follows the investigation in Union and Disillusion. Arkham continues to decay as breaches in reality tear through the Earth, while discordant pipes echo through the streets. Frightened citizens have sealed themselves indoors, but you must continue patrolling the city in search of a way to end the chaos.

In this scenario, doom does not accrue at its usual rate. Instead, breaches appear at different locations and are represented by resource tokens. When enough breaches gather at one location, an incursion occurs, adding doom there and causing the breaches to spread to connecting locations.

  • Monitor breaches appearing across Arkham.
  • Activate the action abilities at locations to remove breaches.
  • Prevent incursions before spreading rifts overwhelm the city.

Controlling the breaches is the central challenge. Removing them requires activating each location’s action abilities, so maintaining control demands careful attention as the threat expands. If the breaches are left unchecked, Arkham may be pushed toward madness.

In The Clutches of Chaos presents a tense scenario built around spreading danger, location-based actions, and a changing doom system. Patrol the streets, manage the growing network of breaches, and do everything possible to stop reality from collapsing around you.
