About the game

What you do in a play session

Prepare to dive deep into the Dreamlands with "The Search for Kadath," the first Mythos Pack in the "The Dream-Eaters" expansion for Arkham Horror: The Card Game! If you've already ventured into the game's universe, you know that with each new pack, the tension rises and the mysteries deepen. In this scenario, anxiety takes hold as you and your companions explore a dream realm in search of a lost castle, trying to unravel secrets and, perhaps, save everyone. The mission is clear: find Kadath, where the gods dwell, and bring back proof of this fantastic land.

"The Search for Kadath" can be played as a standalone adventure or integrated into the "The Dream-Eaters" campaign, forming a larger and more complex narrative. The great twist here is that investigators might find themselves split between the dream world and the real world, demanding impeccable cooperation between players to overcome the challenges that arise in both realms. To aid you on this mind-bending journey, the pack brings new player cards that promise to create unprecedented synergies between investigators, allowing you to support each other in creative ways, even during the Mythos Phase! Get ready to uncover the meaning of your dreams and find the proof you seek, but beware, for the Dreamlands hold unimaginable dangers, and the price of sanity might be high.
