Cold salt waves beat on the New England coast and thick fog rolls in off the bay, obscuring the small fishing hamlets that nestle in the darkness. Dark things creep along the shoreline, strange lights glide deep beneath the surface of the Atlantic, and the pallid villagers go missing with disturbing regularity.

Under Dark Waves is a new large box expansion for Arkham Horror, taking your investigations beyond the town of Arkham to the other ill-fated towns of Massachusetts. Two new double-sided tiles bring Kingsport and Innsmouth to vibrant life, while eight more investigators arrive to join your party, ranging from a drifter like “Ashcan” Pete to a letter carrier such as Stella Clark. These investigators will have their work cut out for them with four entirely new scenarios pitting them against the horrors that lurk beneath the ocean waves. With over 150 encounter and event cards, alongside new assets, monsters, conditions, and the terror mechanic, Under Dark Waves boasts a vast undersea treasure trove, pulling you into some of the Cthulhu Mythos’s most compelling tales.

This is not a standalone product. It requires the Arkham Horror Third Edition Core Set to play.

Timothy F. ★★★★★

The fog and shoreline atmosphere are so thick you can almost smell the saltwater while playing. The scenario structure keeps the tension creeping in a way that feels genuinely fresh, and the coastal setting adds a dread the base game sometimes missed.

Grace G. ★★★★★

The two new investigators play completely differently from the base game, which was the main reason I picked this up. The coastal town tiles fit right in with the original board, and the difficulty ramps up just enough to feel tense without being punishing.

Andrew ★★★★★

The foggy coastal setting sucked me right in, and the new scenario cards make the fishing hamlets feel genuinely creepy instead of just reusing old map tiles. Played it with four people last weekend and the difficulty spike actually had us sweating by the third act.
