About this expansion
Eldritch Horror: Mountains of Madness is a 2014 expansion for 1–8 players, with games lasting about 180 minutes. It takes investigators to the farthest reaches of Antarctica, where a doomed expedition leads toward the immense City of the Elder Things.
Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s novella, this expansion brings a frozen new setting to the worldwide struggle against the Ancient Ones. The dangers discovered in Antarctica do not remain isolated: freshly awakened horrors spread across the globe, creating repercussions far beyond the ice.
Eight investigators introduce new roles to play as you confront chilling, inhuman threats. Alongside them, a wide range of additional cards expands the tools and dangers encountered during the investigation.
- Eight investigators with new roles to play
- Additional Assets, Spells, Artifacts, and Conditions
- Adventures and Prelude cards shaping the international struggle
- An Antarctic journey featuring the Mountains of Madness and the City of the Elder Things
Assets, Spells, and Artifacts may aid investigators, while Conditions can help or harm them as the expedition unfolds. For the first time, Adventures and Prelude cards influence the broader conflict against the Ancient Ones, adding new ways for the worldwide crisis to develop.
In Eldritch Horror: Mountains of Madness, survival means enduring Antarctica’s frozen wastes, confronting inhuman horrors, and striving to stave off the end of human civilization.
