Curse of The Dark PharaohApr 28, 2009
By Justin Brasfield

This is certainly a great addition to your Arkham Horror set. My only quam with it is that you have to have the card list if you ever want to take it out of your AH deck, because unlike goat of the black woods, this does not have a marker, but it's not that big of a deal. Playing just the pharaoh game is recommended when you first get it, then you should probably just integrate it into your deck, especially if you have Dunwitch, Kingsport, or both. The ability to take the relic cards instead of the magical items it's pretty interesting if you want to risk it, because some of the relics aren't that great, but there are some that are quite excellent. This is recommended for any lover of Arkham Horror, and anyone who wants to complete the set.
 Get the revised edition...Apr 25, 2012
By P
I love the Arkham Horror series, this was the first expansion I bought for it back in 2008. It didn't really integrate with the base game that well, and Fantasy Flight caught on and issued a revised edition that should integrate more...be sure to get that one and not this one.
Did Not Receive the Edition ShownDec 30, 2011
By Michael Russell
I ordered and expected the earlier edition of the game so I would have more options with the game but received the newer revised edition. Now I still need to find the older edition.
 Good "small" expansion for Arkham HorrorApr 27, 2011
By The Rev
"---They called me the Reverend when I entered the church unstained... my employers have changed but the name remains."
First expansion I got for Arkham Horror. This adds.... more. More mythos cards, more location cards, more everything. Once you've played a handful of games and say "oh, I remember what this card is going to be"... buy this.

It's ArkhamMay 01, 2009

The entire Arkham Horror series is excellent. Granted, learning the core game takes a while, but after you get the hang of it, it goes fairly smooth and is a lot of fun.
