User blog:DesertStorm11/Elder Sign Information

Lore
''Something terrible has begun to awaken within our museum, a something unsatisfied by mere exhibition or human study, writhing with ancient evil and terrible purpose. An entity that must, at all cost, be prevented access to our world. It's likely I will be branded as one unhinged for what I am about to do. From my studies, I'm convinced such dangers are not new to the human experience. The very fact that humanity survives to this day I attribute to our forebear's success in resisting the tormented realities beyond our own. Regrettably, such is not easy study. Among the rarities I have been fortunate enough to uncover, one particular emblem seems significant. A symbol of purported resistive faculty and considerable power. They called it the Elder Sign.''

Special Notes
This game is fairly hard to understand, so please read through all of the information before joining.

You will be playing a version of the game called "Elder Sign: Omens", which is the mobile version of the game.

Summary
Elder Sign is a board game, based off of Cthulhu Mythos. It is set inside of a museum, where players must work together to defeat monsters and complete tasks to get further in the game. After completing one task, another appears.

Goals and Other Basic Information
Players must gain tokens called "Elder Signs" to win the game and defeat the Ancient One they are fighting. The number of Elder Signs that is required to win depends on the Ancient One.

They must collect the required number of Elder Signs before the Doom Track reaches ten Doom Tokens. Once the Doom Track reaches ten, the Ancient One awakens, and the game either immediately ends there, or becomes much more difficult to win, depending on the Ancient One.

After a certain number of turns, depending on the number of players, midnight will come. At that point, it is possible that effects will occur, from either the Ancient One, or possible tasks that have midnight effects.

The game can be played with 1 to 8 players, but 4 is the preferred and average amount.

I will be adding information to this blog whenever I have the time. Feel free to comment questions or thoughts at any time. :)
