Take the Fight to the Streets!
Despite our best efforts to contain it, the evil that possessed the museum has escaped! The streets of our shattered city re overrun with a pulsing vortex of alien radiance, as abominations pour forth into Arkham.
The Gates of Arkham expansion provides new and horrifying Ancient Ones, monsters, and mythos cards that will challenge even the most seasoned investigators. In addition to new allies, spells, and items that can be used while adventuring in the museum, the investigators are presented with a new adventure set in the familiar streets and locations of Arkham.
As gates to Other Worlds open across these new locales, investigators must utilize all of their resources to travel through and seal these eldritch portals before all of Arkham is consumed by this grasping dread.

Increases difficulty
Playing the adventure cards face down definitely ramps up the tension. Enjoy the new investigators and Mythos deck as well. We have played twice and lost both times which is not a problem since beating the base game was becoming the norm.

Really enjoy!
I really enjoy this expansion to Elder Sign. Having the locations hidden until you go to them really adds a whole new layer to the game. As is the norm for Fantasy Flight, the components are wonderful too.

Wow
So this expansion seems to really ratchet up the difficulty for Elder Sign significantly. Prior to this expansion Elder sign was to easy of a game where there seemed to be no real threat. Gates of Arkham right out of the gate was significantly harder and much more entertaining. There was now actual need to strategize in order to have a chance of winning.
