Arkham Noir Case #2: Called Forth by Thunder
Arkham Noir: Case #2 – Called Forth By Thunder
Recommended for Ages 14 & up
1-1 Players
30 minutes playtime
Randolph Carter is sitting across from your desk. "The state police have strongly advised me to stay out of the area." One dead companion and two others missing, presumed dead; Carter was old money, which went a long way towards explaining why he wasn't in jail. "Uh huh" is all the enthusiasm you can muster. He continues: "We were looking into the creeping death stalking the locals. Poor, squatter types, descendants of the Dutch colonists that once claimed the land. Typer put me on to it, and now he's nowhere to be found, of course. Things got out of hand, and I wonder if you’d finish looking into it for me?" Old money trumps no money when the rent is due, so you tell him you'll motor out to the Catskills and poke around. "Bring an umbrella. There are an awful lot of storms in the area."
Arkham Noir is a solitaire card game inspired by the interconnected stories of H. P. Lovecraft and other authors, re-imagined as noir detective stories. Each case stands alone. In Case #2 – Called Forth By Thunder, as private investigator Howard Lovecraft, you will investigate events based on the stories: "The Lurking Fear" (1923) and "The Diary of Alonzo Typer" (1938). New elements such as storm cards and formula cards are introduced, which will force players to face the new challenge in a different way.

–La policía estatal me ha aconsejado encarecidamente que me mantenga alejado de ese lugar. Un compañero ha perdido la vida y otros dos continúan desaparecidos, presumiblemente también muertos.
Randolph Carter, sentado frente a mi escritorio, era de familia ilustre, lo que en parte explica por qué no estaba en la cárcel.
–Ajá, ¿eso es todo el entusiasmo que puedes reunir? –continuó.
Investigábamos las extrañas muertes de los lugareños, gente humilde, descendientes de colonos holandeses que una vez reclamaron esa tierra.
–Typer me metió en esto y ahora ha desaparecido. Las cosas se nos fueron de las manos… Me pregunto si terminarías la investigación por mí. Mi apellido no ayuda cuando se trata de pagar el alquiler. Diles que te dirigirás al bosque de Catskills y mantén los ojos bien abiertos. No olvides el paraguas. Las tormentas son frecuentes en la zona.
Ponte en la piel del investigador privado Howard Lovecraft e indaga en los sucesos basados en los relatos: “El diario de Alonzo Typer” (1938) y “El horror oculto” (1923).
Arkham Noir es un juego inspirado en la interconexión de relatos de H. P. Lovecraft y otros autores, reinventados como historias detectivescas de novela negra. Cada caso de la serie Arkham Noir es independiente y se juega en solitario.
En esta segunda enrtega, se introducen nuevos elementos como cartas de tormenta o las de fórmula, que obligarán a los jugadores a enfrentarse al nuevo reto de una manera diferente.
