Overview

Miskatonic Tales: Journey to Innsmouth is an immersive, storytelling board game that transports you into the realm of the Cthulhu Mythos and confronts you with forbidden knowledge waiting impatiently to be uncovered. Unsure of who your actual enemy is, you must investigate a chain of events in a mysterious place fate has brought you to. Fortunately, other Investigators are with you and together you can solve this case.

Miskatonic Tales: Journey to Innsmouth is set in the universe known from the award-winning Call of Cthulhu horror and mystery TTRPG. The box contains three stand-alone sandbox adventures that can be played separately, yet share one large story arc. This cooperative game does not have a strict turn order, but emphasizes solving the case together as a group. Every move you make while exploring the map is accompanied by a paragraph from the book that reveals yet another piece of your story. Each time you play, the story can be different, and trying to solve the scenario several times eventually reveals the full picture.

Combining strategy, storytelling, and cooperation, the game offers an engaging experience where choices matter, teamwork is crucial, and the story's path is as unpredictable as it is thrilling.

Learn more about the Mythos by taking part in intriguing adventures. What role will you play in the story? Investigate the clues. Uncover the truth. Explore the story.
