About this expansion

Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game – Denizens of the Underworld is a deluxe expansion for two players, with games lasting about 30 minutes. Released in 2014, it adds 165 new cards to the dark world of Arkham.

Rogues and racketeers run through the streets under the control of the criminal kingpin Danny O’Bannion. At The Clover Club, business is good, the house always wins, and the criminal underworld uses new tactics to protect its territory from anyone trying to muscle in.

Roughly two-thirds of the expansion’s cards support the Syndicate, giving it a host of new names for its rosters alongside dangerous tools and clever tricks. These additions expand the faction’s presence while reinforcing the setting’s focus on organized crime and shadowy dealings.

  • 165 new cards in total
  • Three copies each of 55 individual cards
  • New Syndicate characters, tools, and tactics
  • A new Ancient One
  • New characters and Tactic events for every other faction

Denizens of the Underworld also broadens the game beyond the Syndicate, introducing new characters and Tactic events for all of Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game’s other factions. This makes the expansion a substantial addition for players seeking fresh options across the game’s entire faction lineup.

With its blend of criminal ambition, deadly equipment, clever schemes, and cosmic horror, Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game – Denizens of the Underworld brings a dangerous new presence to Arkham’s streets.
