You are a merchant in the city of Genoa. The game board features a district of the city bordered by darker tiles. You will attempt to acquire wealth and fame in the various buildings identified with a banner.

These buildings allow you to take the various actions that will lead you to prosperity. However, since you can only take one action per turn, you will need to be a canny salesman and sell the other actions in order to generate a profit. …

At the start of each game, you will choose an Episode box and an Elder One box and combine their components. The Episode will provide the map layout, the ritual you are trying to disrupt (and how to disrupt it), as well as the abilities of the monsters in the game.

The Elder One will provide the big boss you will fight, with its own challenges, along with its special minions. Do not combine elements from other boxes.

1 to 5 players will control investigators, cooperating to win or lose the game together. In each game, the goal remains the same: disrupt the ritual, then kill the Elder One. …

Enter a vast, underwater cosmos: a mysterious interconnected world of tentacles, sharp teeth, and black ink, where your survival depends on your ability to adapt to the unexpected
