You thought that the final curtain had closed on your dealings with The King in Yellow. When the cursed play first came to Arkham, it was followed by a string of disappearances, delusions, suicides, and madness. Throughout The Path to Carcosa cycle, which marked the second full-length campaign for Arkham Horror: The Card Game, your search for answers took you across the sea to the shining lights of Paris and beyond to Dim Carcosa and before the throne of Hastur himself in eight unique scenarios that tested your conviction, made you doubt your senses, and pushed you to the edge of insanity. But now, madness returns to Arkham for an encore performance…

This is roughly similar to the changes done in Return to the Dunwich Legacy: the changes are mostly minor, but the difficulty of everything is increased a bit. I think this is an ok purchase if you're a completionist. Otherwise, it's not needed. I played Return to The Unspeakable Oath with a group of 4 investigators. I'm 99% certain that the changes to RTTUO render the scenario _unbeatable_. The only way that I can think of for it to be beatable is if, from the start of the campaign, the investigators are built to be able to handle this scenario, and experience points must be spent to be able to handle this scenario. What is especially needed is anything to cancel encounter cards when they're drawn.

The least interesting of the three Return to offerings, and one that makes me want to stop buying them.

I like the idea of the 'Return to' releases but continue to be pissed off about the packaging. The storage box that ships with the 'Return to' should release with the initial 'Deluxe' intro to the cycle, thus dispensing with the fit for nothing flimsy packaging that is used for the 'deluxe's. The 'Return to' content, i.e. the cards, could then be released in a clamshell or more appropriately sized packaging.
