Title: Unforeseen Difficulty
Review: This is an expansion pack for the board and dice game Elder Sign (which is one of my favorites).This expansion comes with a ton of new cards (adventures, unique items, common items, spells, allies, other worlds, entrance, monsters, ancient ones and mythos/master mythos). It also comes with cursed and blessed dice, which can really help, or really hurt you.This expansion changes up the came slightly to prove for a more difficult experience. There are 8 new investigators to choose from with cool abilities. The Ancient ones are just as hard, but there is a new set of mythos cards, one that let you choose what bad thing happens that round, or (if master is chosen) extremely difficult circumstances.The expansion cards have a little icon I’ve their bottom right corner so it is easy to separate from the base deck when putting everything away.There are 4 new entrance cards that replace the base entrance card. These still generally do the same thing, but each card has the ability of getting locked in the middle of a game (the Hospital entrance was locked in my first play through and no one could heal themselves). You can no longer save up to purchase an Elder Sign, but you can get a blessed die.The curssed and blessed die (when added to your roll) can act as an extra die to help you with tasks or remove dice that have the same icon as it from your pool.The adventure cards are new and reap both great benefits and bad penalties.Overall this is an amazing expansion and will bring a new challenge to Elder Sign. The drive addition is cool, the cards are cool, and the new investigators add new strategy. I have polished it with my friends and we have lost, but we ask love a challenge and can’t wait to play with it again.

Title: Great game
Review: The game arrived earlier than expected. Safe and in a good quality. The expansion is a MUST for this game. I think it have to be bought together with the core game as I did. It give a lot of new cards, investigators and locations. Plus – new cubes!!! They make the game more interesting and challenging.

Review: This expansion adds a ton of replay value to the base game. It gives you more options with new characters, items, and ancient enemies. The new rooms, mythos cards, and monsters increase the difficulty level significantly. Before playing with the expansion we had only lost one game so it was seeming too easy. Since getting the expansion all of the games are pretty close and we have lost several, though we still win far more often than we lose. The biggest change in the expansion is the addition of the blessing and curse. The blessing is very powerful, adding another die to your pool every turn until you lose your blessing. The curse is detrimental, potentially causing you to discard a die every turn, but it is somewhat of a gamble and can be gotten rid of without too much trouble usually. Overall, the expansion makes the game more difficult, fun, and interesting at the same time.

Title: Long-awaited expansion worth the wait
Review: My gaming group has been playing the basic Elder Sign game for a while now, and we like how simple the mechanic is, while still being challenging enough to be fun. I’ve read some reviews that claim the Unseen Forces expansion makes the game too easy, however, that has not been the case with our group…especially if you run into Abhoth! The introduction of the Blessing and Cursing mechanisms are welcome, as is the ability to remove Doom Track counters for completing adventures. To balance this, the game has removed the ability to purchase Elder Signs from the Souvenir Shop, and the Blessing is ridiculously easy to lose (just fail an adventure, and there go your 8 Trophy points).The updated character cards to replace broken/poorly-worded mechanics are a nice inclusion, as are the updated replacement cards for some of the original set’s adventure cards.Overall, I am very happy with this expansion, and with Elder Sign in general as a game. It’s quick, easy to learn, and a good cooperative game; perfect for a little down-time gaming when other things take too long. Highly recommended.

Title: Critical expansion to the game
Review: This expansion is necessary and completes the base game. I do not understand why it id simply not included with the base game as the additional dice and cards add so much to the gameplay.

Title: Makes Elder Sign feel like a complete game
Review: I love Elder Sign but when I first played it, it did feel a little incomplete. It just felt a bit too easy and a bit too simple to me. This expansion fixes that problem by adding a new blessed/cursed mechanic and increasing the game’s overall difficulty with some new cards.The blessed/cursed mechanic fits into the game extremely naturally, to the point where it feels like it should have been included in the base game. It’s a relatively small addition to the game, it’s basically just two new dice that you’ll roll occasionally, but it goes a long way towards making Elder Sign feel more complete and I can’t imagine playing the game without it now.The new cards are all really nice for adding some variety to all of the decks. In general, the new adventure cards and ancient one cards are more challenging than the base game’s cards, so playing with this expansion adds a good deal of difficulty to the game, which is something it badly needed. The game no longer feels like an automatic win every time. And if you want, you can further increase the difficulty by adding the new “master” mythos cards to the mythos deck.Overall, I consider this expansion pretty much mandatory for Elder Sign; I can’t imagine playing the base game without it.

Title: An ESSENTIAL Expansion.
Review: This expansion is ESSENTIAL to your Elder Sign gaming experience. This set give you more of the same from the core set, but it ramps up the difficulty and adds blessed and cursed dice…which bring a THRILLING mechanic into the game. I would purchase this expansion with the game for a more complete feel, or I would make it a priority to get this expansion first before any of the rest as the blessed and cursed mechanic transfer very well into all the other expansions.

Review: 日本語版が品切れになって久しく中古の値段も高騰しています。購入した当時はこの英語版の価格が3000円台に下がっていたため購入しました。これで念願の祝福の白ダイスと呪いの黒ダイスが手に入りました。ただ、和訳に関しては、ルール面はある程度きまりきった表現なのでいいのですが、世界観を表す各カードの文章が難しかったです。アイコン表記なので訳さなくてもゲームには支障はないんですけど。エルダーサインの拡張はまだまだ英語版ではでてるのですが、今回の労力を考えると、もういいかなっとは思います。

Review: Lived upto my expetations. Integrates perfectly with the base set and only adds to the eldritch experience. The new entrance cards have got rid of the chance to buy elder sign tokens, incresasing the skill level whilst adding a wonderful new twist with the introduction of the chapel (enabling you to spend tokens on the new blessing feature). New characters, up-dates of several existing cards, new items, monsters and Ancient Ones. The new blessing and curse dice are a great introduction.Overall, a small box packing a great deal of added fun (of nail bitting dread and air punching victory). FFG have produced a very clever expansion with this game. Well worth a purchase.

Review: I’m a fan of the entire Arkham Horror line, and Elder Sign offers a light weight, fast paced, of the larger and more involved Arkham Horror.First off, the expansion, like all Fantasy Flight Games, is of great quality and comes with a few more protective sleeves for the additional pieces (not enough in my opinion but you get some).Unseen Forces adds more mechanics to make the game more interesting and adds a lot of items, adventures cards, new investigators and ancient ones to keep the game fresh.The additional mechanics also help give the game more strategy and options to the players, the Master Mythos cards are very deadly and can be added to the Mythos Deck to increase the difficulty of the game.In addition to all the new features, Fantasy Flight Games has also fixed a fair number of the Other World Adventure cards whose rewards were very lack luster, namely they all added a doom token to the doom track on a success. These cards were always supposed to be more appealing than the normal adventure cards, so players would strive to open gates to these worlds. The have fixed the rewards so that these other worlds are indeed very appealing and worth the risk.They have also clarified a few investigator special abilities, namely those of the doctor and the psychiatrist whose special ability to heal players has been changed to “At the beginning of any player’s turn” but only “Once per day”.All in all, it’s a great addition for fans of Elder Sign.
