Arkham Horror like PC game ?
« on: December 04, 2016, 08:52:00 am »

So some of you know the board game Arkham Horror, I guess...is there any PC game out there with a similar 'feeling' ? No need to have the same theme but capturing a complex boardgame setting...

I guess Daily Cthonicle might fit the bill?
You manage a group of "investigators" who are actually journalists working for a newspaper that covers Lovecraftian stuff. The skill/challenge system seems to have drawn some inspiration from the Arkham Horror type games.
