Mansions of Madness

About this board game

Mansions of Madness is a horror and mystery board game for 2–5 players, with each game taking about 180 minutes. Set near Arkham, Massachusetts, it leads investigators into cursed manors, crypts, schools, monasteries, and derelict buildings.

Every game follows a pre-designed story with a unique map and several possible combinations of plot threads. These threads shape the dangers the investigators face, the clues they must discover, and the climactic ending they will ultimately experience.

One player becomes the keeper, controlling the monsters and other malicious powers within the story. The remaining players take the roles of investigators, searching for answers while struggling to survive with their minds intact.

• Explore: Investigate cursed locations near Arkham and uncover the truth hidden within.
• Search for clues: Follow the evidence needed to reveal the story’s mysteries.
• Face horror: Encounter horrific monsters and spectral presences that may devour victims or drive them insane.
• Shape the outcome: Experience an ending determined by the story’s plot threads and discoveries.

Designed by Corey Konieczka, Mansions of Madness combines exploration, mystery, horror, and insanity in a tense struggle between investigators and the keeper. The changing combinations of threats, clues, and story endings give each scenario its own unfolding nightmare.

Gather a handful of brave investigators, enter the haunted places surrounding Arkham, and uncover what waits within. Do you dare enter the Mansions of Madness?
