About this expansion

Arkham Horror: Curse of the Dark Pharaoh is an Egyptian-themed expansion for Arkham Horror for 1–8 players, with a listed play time of 240 minutes.

A museum exhibit has arrived in Arkham, bringing the mysteries of ancient Egypt into the game. You can make the exhibit a permanent part of the base game by mixing its cards with the original deck, or keep the expansion separate and have it visit whenever you wish.

Curse of the Dark Pharaoh contains 166 cards designed to expand the Arkham Horror experience. Its contents cover locations, gates, spells, allies, benefits and detriments, neighborhood restrictions, and exhibit items representing ancient Egyptian relics.

  • 45 Arkham location cards
  • 27 new gate cards
  • 21 new spell cards
  • 7 new ally cards
  • 4 benefit and detriment cards
  • 18 “barred from neighborhood” cards
  • 22 exhibit item cards

The expansion’s flexible format lets you decide how prominently the museum exhibit features in your game. Keep the cards integrated for an ongoing addition to Arkham Horror, or preserve the exhibit as a separate visit for a more occasional Egyptian-themed addition.

Part of the Arkham Horror Series, Curse of the Dark Pharaoh was released in 2006. Its broad collection of new cards provides a focused Egyptian theme while extending the content available in the base game.
