DESCRIPTION
Called Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Bureau of Investigation – Investigations into Arkham & Elsewhere, the upcoming board game will transport players from the series’ previous setting of late 19th century London, during the era in which the fictional detective would have been sleuthing, to the USA during the 1920s. A historical period known for great social upheaval and technological advancements, the Roaring Twenties will play host to an invading army of creatures and beings from beyond in the stars in Investigations into Arkham & Elsewhere
In the co-op game, players will become members of a secret organisation designed to look into strange goings-on and paranormal phenomena called The Bureau of Investigation. As agents of the Bureau, players will be responsible for launching investigations into unusual events that have been inspired by the Cthulhu-mythos, which is also the inspiration for many other tabletop series such as Arkham Horror: The Card Game and Cthulhu: Death May Die, in order to unearth the clues they need to prevent any potential invasions from the Old Ones.
Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Bureau of Investigation – Investigations into Arkham & Elsewhere was created by Grégory Privat, whose previous games include another Cthulhu-esque inspired title called Assault on Innsmouth, a miniatures game featuring WWI infantry and Old Ones creatures.
Apart from releasing the Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective series, Space Cowboys is also known for publishing the beginner board game Splendor, the two-player card game Jaipur and another cooperative board game series called T.I.M.E Stories, in which players travel through time in order to fix mistakes and rewrite history.
