The missing expansion to give A Touch of Evil: Dark Gothic that extra chill has arrived! The Beacon of Doom supplement brings 15 new cards to spice up your experience, focusing on that mysterious lighthouse near Tidewater. Prepare to face the 'Tendrils of the Kraken' and explore the new lighthouse location. And the best part: the town elders of Tidewater make their first appearance! This expansion adds more elements of horror and mystery, expanding the base game's universe with new threats and interactions. If you already enjoy the dark and challenging vibe of A Touch of Evil, this pack is a must-have to further increase the tension and replayability. It's the kind of addition that makes you think twice before exploring a new area of the map, knowing something sinister might be lurking. Perfect for those who love to dive headfirst into horror stories and face legendary creatures in search of answers (and, perhaps, salvation!).
