Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game – Seekers of Knowledge

About this expansion

Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game – Seekers of Knowledge is a deluxe expansion for two players, with a playing time of about 30 minutes. Released in 2012, it brings the hallowed halls of Miskatonic University to the forefront with new characters devoted to higher education, science, and stranger knowledge.

The expansion introduces nineteen different Miskatonic characters, giving the faction new energy and direction. Many of these characters work especially well together, becoming more efficient as additional allies enter play and rewarding players who build around a growing group of university supporters.

Seekers of Knowledge also gives Miskatonic University players reasons to concentrate on the faction’s heroic investigators. Rather than pairing them with another faction and compromising their ideals, players can explore a more focused approach built around the university’s own characters and themes.

• Nineteen new Miskatonic characters
• Cards that support allies working together
• Options for focusing on heroic investigators
• A deluxe expansion containing 165 cards

As well as expanding the game’s Miskatonic identity, Seekers of Knowledge marked a change in the release model for Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game. It was the first deluxe expansion in a planned format that replaced monthly Asylum Packs with one 165-card deluxe expansion every four months.

Each expansion in this format contains three copies each of fifty-five individual cards. With its optimistic new school year, dedicated investigators, and emphasis on cooperation between university allies, Seekers of Knowledge offers a distinctive new direction for the Miskatonic faction.
