Eldritch Horror: Masks of Nyarlathotep is an expansion for Eldritch Horror, a cooperative boardgame for one to eight players where intrepid investigators must traverse the globe in an attempt to thwart the cataclysmic rise of an otherworldly Ancient One. Strange cults are gathering strength in remote corners and bustling cities all over the world. Though they seem to worship different gods, the investigators have found a thread that runs throughout all of the cultists’ horrific rites.

Pues esta expansión no es la gran cosa. Lo más prometedor era el modo campaña, lo cual resultó en prácticamente jugar 6 partidas seguidas ja ja. Lo compré porque no tiene tablero adicional: no me gustan esas expansiones porque siento se desperdicia mucho ese tablero adicional ya que sólo lo puedes usar cuando juegas contra un Antiguo en específico, y a mi lo que me gusta es jugar con distintos Antiguos en cada sesión.

7/30/18 - I'm very disappointed by the heavily marketed "campaign mode" which was a lie, or at least heavily misrepresented. The entire campaign mode is just a simple set of house rules that you don't even need this expansion to play. As summed up by one of the BGG reviews of this game, the rules are: "Don't reuse ancient ones, investigators stay dead, play with 2 prelude cards, do it 6 times." Wow, that's a shame. The concept had such potential. I'm also not really interested in the "personal stories" aspect of the game, but may mess around with them since I paid for them. Resources are a nice new addition, but again just like the campaign mode you don't need to buy this expansion to play with the new rule. Just find a suitable set of tokens to use as resources, and that's all you need. So basically, this purchase just provided me with the equivalent of about 1.5 small box EH expansions, for the price of 2. That sucks. I'm always glad to have more content for this game, but I wish I would have waited and not paid full MSRP in my excitement for a new big box expansion that ended up barely being more than a small box expansion. I'm knocking a couple of points off of my usual "9" rating for EH games, and giving this one a 7. I'm still glad I own it, but I feel misled by the marketing for it.

+ Personal stories add flavour + Very cool Ancient Ones + More of everything is my favourite + Resource mechanic is a nice addition - Campaign mode is bad and it looks like they didn't put any effort into it - Personal stories add flavour but can side track you from the goal, also failing it ruins your character very bad
