About the game

What you do in a play session

Aeon's End: Buried Secrets is an expansion designed to supercharge your Aeon's End sessions, bringing a wealth of extra content that originally was part of the Aeon's End Legacy crowdfunding campaign. But heads up, folks: while it comes from the same 'family,' this expansion is intended for use with existing Aeon's End base games, and not to be integrated into the Legacy campaign itself. Think of it as an 'upgrade pack' for your main game, adding more options for mages, nemeses, and market cards for you and your friends to face. If you're already a fan of the series and crave more variety for your cooperative deck-building matches, Buried Secrets is that 'little something extra' that will make your battles against the Void more unpredictable and exciting. It's a full plate for those looking to refresh their experience without starting a new campaign from scratch, expanding the tactical possibilities and replayability of your favorite Aeon's End.
