    Arkham Horror: The Card Game

    Fantasy Flight's newest game in the realm of the Cthulhu mythos is a cooperative, living card game of Lovecraftian mystery, monsters, and madness! With new updates coming on a regular basis, this game is set to expand for years to come!
       
    Nominated for more than 9 awards this past year, winning Board Game Geek's Golden Geek Award for Best Card Game, and SXSW's Tabletop Game of the Year, this game is sure to please new players and experienced players alike! With upgrades like those pictured, it is definitely one that will look great on the table!
       
    We are proud to feature the following unique #BoardGameUpgrades for Arkham Horror: The Card Game.
       
     
    Deluxe Token Bundle
    Stonemaier Games Realistic Resource Tokens are the basis for our Deluxe Token Bundle for Arkham Horror: The Card Game. One of our biggest sets with over 90 realistic resources, this kit features replacements for resources, damage, horror, doom, and clue tokens. 
     
    Acrylic Directional Arrows 
    These unique upgrades are designed to help you and your group understand the paths during gameplay. We offer two types of arrows (both single-sided and double-sided arrows) that will help you connect the locations that are laid out so that you can easily decide where to go next by simply glancing at the board. This is especially helpful during scenarios like Midnight Masks or Blood on the Altar.
          

    Dead of Winter: A Crossroads Game

    One of the most unique board games in the horror and zombie categories today is Dead of Winter, a meta-cooperative, psychological survival game that places you and your friends in very intense situations - often having to make the choice of life and death with those in your camp. Our featured upgrades for this game are some of the most eye-catching!
     
    Deluxe Token Bundle
    When surviving the zombie apocalypse it is the resources that will determine your fate, and our Deluxe Upgrade Kit with over 100 resource token upgrades will be sure to help get you through!
    This upgrade kit of realistic resources comes with metal, plastic/acrylic, and resin token upgrades that replace the base game components for Dead of Winter. These upgrades won't keep someone in your party from sabotaging the mission, but they will make your game look great no matter the outcome!
     
    Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert
    Games with lots of card sets require 2 things: card sleeves for protection, and a reliable insert to help with storage, setup and tear down. This Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert made by Robert Searing of Insert Here is designed with sleeved cards in mind and helps you and your game group with storage, setup, and tear down.

    Mysterium

    October is a wonderful time to gather your friends and family around the table and introduce them to board games that have a sense of familiarity and yet are still complex enough to be a fun and strategic experience. Classic games like Clue have inspired, new and innovative games that have taken the industry by storm. One of those games is Mysterium, a cooperative "whodunit" that uses full-size art cards that are given to the party by a single player, who plays as the "ghost." Work together to solve the mystery: who did it, in what room, and with what weapon? Just make sure you do it before the clock runs out of time, or the mystery will remain unsolved...forever!
       
     
    Card Sleeve Bundle
    Every card-driven game requires protection to increase longevity and playability. No more needing to figure out which sleeves will be the perfect fit, we have taken care of the hard work for you and we have compiled a bundle of card sleeves that is the exact fit and contains just the right amount of sleeves. Our Card Sleeve Bundle for Mysterium contains 300 card sleeves in three sizes: Large, Standard, and Small.
    - While this card sleeve bundle will help protect your copy of Mysterium from your uncle Joe's sticky, pie fingers, it won't help protect you from Uncle Joe's awkward dad jokes, we're sorry about that.
     
    Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert
    For the past two years, Mysterium has brought friends and family together to enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience. The only downside to such an amazing game? Setup and tear down time. Luckily, we have you covered with this Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert, made by Robert Searing of Insert Here. Made specifically to decrease the amount of time it takes to set up and tear down the game you will be glad to know that this insert is in stock and ready for purchase!

    Betrayal at House on the Hill

    Few games accomplish the feat of being able to be played multiple times and even fewer still accomplish the task of having over 50 unique scenarios in one box! Betrayal at House on the Hill does exactly that and offers a fun and unique experience for 3-6 players!
    Taking on the role of various characters you must work together to build a unique haunted house and take on frightening spirits. Whatever their role, the cast finds themselves trapped inside a haunted mansion and must set out to explore. Players take turns drawing and setting out floor tiles with each new room they enter. But, wait...one of your fellow adventurers will unexpectedly turn against you and the rest of the party and you must work together to defeat the monster/demon that has taken control of them! Will you save your friend? Will you save yourself? Can you do both? It's time to find out!
     
     
    Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert
    This hand-made storage system not only accommodates sleeved cards but also holds the expansion Widow's Walk. This insert is composed of five removable trays and is designed to aid in set up and tear down. 
       

    Eldritch Horror

    The box for Eldritch Horror may be the same size as other board games, but it has more content than most other board games stuffed inside it - try picking it up and you'll feel the weight! This is one of the reasons that we have added this game to our list!
    In addition to its literal heft, Eldritch Horror has a great way of weaving a complex narrative into a sophisticated, yet fluid, gameplay experience. No two games will be the same and you and your group of 1-8 will enjoy traveling the globe solving mysteries, overcoming afflictions, battling other-worldly monsters and sealing the gates to the nether regions! It's games like Eldritch Horror that make the Halloween season a blast at the game table - and it's a game that we are proud to showcase the following upgrades for.
     
    Pair of Dice Paradise: The Component Proponent with Chaz Marler
    This isn't a literal upgrade, but we are proud to support Chaz Marler and Pair of Dice Paradise! In this episode of The Component Proponent, Chaz showcases various board game upgrades that are available for Eldritch Horror, and with twelve unique investigators, two hundred fifty tokens, and over three hundred cards (not including expansions!) it may be overwhelming to find them on your own.Chaz puts in the legwork for you and uncovers the best upgrades. Watch His Video By Clicking Here.
     
    Card Sleeves
    As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the base box has over three hundred cards and with expansions, that number quickly climbs. As a card-driven game, the most important upgrade to prolonging and protecting your investment is card sleeves. We have a few unique bundles that are prepared for you - simply add the card sleeve bundles that you need for the base game and any specific expansions, and you'll be protected and ready to take on the Shoggoths of the world! You don't really want their black, slimy juice on your cards, do you?
     
    Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert
    This Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert made by Robert Searing of Insert Here is designed with sleeved cards in mind and helps you and your game group with storage, setup, and teardown. This insert is expertly designed, and hand-crafted - it can fit the entire world of Eldritch Horror, and all the adventures that your group will attempt inside, and will keep it all safe for years to come!
       

    Elder Sign

    Set in the 1920s, Elder Sign takes place in a museum's eclectic collection of occult artifacts that are posing a threat to our world! These dark artifacts have the potential to open portals to unleash the Ancient One! You and your group of 1-8 must cooperatively work together in a race against the clock to investigate and explore the eldritch symbols while keeping your sanity and stamina intact! 
       
    As is the case with other games set in the realm of the Cthulhu Mythos, this game has a lot of pieces inside the box! Our upgrades are geared to enhance and increase your immersion while playing the game and will replace the cardboard bits that come in the box.
     
    Large Box compatible with Elder Sign™
    Everything for Elder Sign in one beautiful box which can accommodate all sleeved cards. 
    This storage box measures 375 x 273 x 111mm which gives plenty of space for all the latest expansions as well as the base game and enables easy setup and pack up too - not to mention the fact that all the components are neatly stored away.
    Additional dividers included - Pacific Adventures*, Other World*, Unseen Forces Mythos* and Arkham Mythos*.
     
    Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert
    With hundreds of bits inside the box (whether yours are cardboard, wooden, or cast resin) you can imagine that this game will need an insert to assist with storage and transport. This Pre-Assembled Foam Core Insert made by Robert Searing of Insert Here is specifically designed to help provide a solution to that problem! Store your game boards, cards, and tokens inside the box and keep them protected and free from damage! 

    Arkham Horror

    One of the first big box games to expand H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, Arkham Horror continues to impress, and can be found in many board game collections to this day! The task for you and your fellow adventurers is to close the open portals that lead to other dimensions and have the potential to unleash the Ancient One! You must act quickly to save the world - you are the last chance for hope!
       
    A large, expansive world awaits you inside the board game box for Arkham Horror and our board game upgrades are guaranteed to help take your game to the next level!
       
     
    Deluxe Realistic Token Bundle
    Stonemaier Games Realistic Resource Tokens are the basis for our Deluxe Token Bundle for Arkham Horror: The Card Game. One of our biggest sets with 90 realistic resources, this kit features replacements for sanity, stamina, and clue tokens. Anatomically-realistic heart and brain tokens will be the talk of your game group for months to come and the metal magnifying glass tokens that replace the clue tokens in the game are sure to help increase the feeling of being a real investigator!
     
    Acrylic Sealed Gate Tokens
    With four options to choose from these acrylic, Gate Tokens will showcase your love for Arkham Horror or any other Cthulhu-based game that you might play during the Halloween season! Choose from the Evil Eye, the Pentagram, Tentacles, or Skulls and stand out from the crowd with these unique gate tokens on your table during game night!
       

    Zombicide

    As a survivor of the zombie apocalypse, you and your game group must collaboratively work together to defeat the hordes of undead zombies that are roaming the city! By choosing when to use each of your team member's unique abilities your group is much more likely to come out without being bitten, but it isn't always easy to do so. The more zombies that you kill, the more skilled you become...and the more skilled that you become, the more zombies appear! This unique, modular, tile-laying game will be able to entertain the same game group for years and our upgrades will help you customize your copy to stand out!
       
     
    Zombicide Dice Packs
    Each dice pack contains 6 dice in your choice of color. With five colors to choose from you are guaranteed to find the right combination that fits your character or style for your game night! Marked down and on clearance specifically during the month of October, make sure and add these dice to your game collection before they roll out the door! Limited quantities available, act fast!
     
    Zombicide Door Markers
    These acrylic, 3D door markers are great to help break up space on the table that your map tiles create. Add a touch of flair to your game night and choose the type of door to fit your scenario: locked door, prison door, or mall door.
