But in 1926, unimaginable horrors from beyond threaten to use these artifacts as a means to enter our world, bringing an end to all of humanity. The clock is striking midnight and a small group of courageous investigators desperately search the marbled halls for the legendary symbol that will keep our world sage! The Elder Sign ... In Elder Sign, 1 to 8 players take on the role of investigators struggling to combat on of the Ancient Ones - vast, powerful creatures that dwell in the space between dimensions. By rolling a pool of special dice, players will investigate the museum that has become the focal point of these strange creatures.
