## Description
Prepare to venture into the dark and mysterious depths of the wilderness with Mansions of Madness: Call of the Wild! This expansion for the acclaimed horror and mystery game transports you to the forgotten corners of Vermont, where danger lurks in every shadow and ancient secrets await discovery. With five new intriguing scenarios and eleven double-sided board tiles, the gameplay experience expands to outdoor environments, offering less linear and more unpredictable exploration. Investigators will have to adapt to unfamiliar terrain, where survival is as crucial as solving the mystery. The Keeper, on the other hand, gains new tools to terrorize the players, including the ability to create their own deck of Keeper Action Cards. This means adversaries will never know what awaits them, making each game a unique and challenging experience. Furthermore, the Keeper may have to collect arcane artifacts scattered across the map, adding an extra layer of tension and strategy. New allies emerge to aid investigators in combat and the macabre narrative, but beware, as even they can succumb to madness when faced with the horrifying creatures inhabiting the forest. Call of the Wild elevates tension and suspense, promising hours of immersion in the Lovecraftian universe, where sanity is a luxury and the unknown is the only certainty.
