Arkham Horror is a board game based on the Cthulhu mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. In doing some research about the game, I found out that it was originally released by Chaosium in 1987 and was based on their newly released Call of Cthulhu role playing game. The version I played, however, was from 2005 and was released by FantasyFlight games publisher of Battlestar Gallactica and most recently Mansions of Madness. Arkham was also one of the first board games to be released as a cooperative board game, the entire group works together to complete the game.
