Elder Sign: Omens of Ice

About this expansion

Elder Sign: Omens of Ice is a 1–8 player board game with an approximately 90-minute play time, sending investigators into the Alaskan wilderness to confront three terrible Ancient Ones.

In Arkham, the weather has turned brutally cold. The Miskatonic has frozen over, hunger is spreading, and reports of cannibalism hint at a deeper horror. The investigators know that the Ancient Ones are behind the unnatural weather and hunger, but this time the danger lies far beyond the museum and Arkham’s streets.

The journey begins at the port of Anchorage and continues through forest paths, mountain passes, and isolated expanses of ice. Whether the investigators travel during summer or are forced to face winter’s darkness, every stage brings new peril.

• Explore the frozen Alaskan wilderness.
• Solve the mysteries of three terrible Ancient Ones.
• Battle wild animals, ravenous monsters, and creatures from other worlds.
• Endure frostbite, starvation, and the madness of the ice.

Survival demands more than facing supernatural enemies. The investigators must also withstand the brutal conditions that claimed thousands of prospectors during the Klondike Gold Rush, when many traveled deep into Alaska in search of fortune.

With its journey into a remote, hostile setting, Omens of Ice expands the threat beyond familiar Arkham locations. The cold, hunger, monsters, and ancient evils combine to create a dangerous expedition where humanity’s survival is at stake.
