Worth it
- Our take
- BGG players rate the small boxes as best value; one 2026 thread suggests starting with Forsaken Lore plus Strange Remnants to beef up item and encounter decks and add Focus.
- What you need first
- Just the base game
Eldritch Horror · Expansion
Strange Remnants
- What it adds
- Syzygy as a new Ancient One, the Mystic Ruins encounter deck (Stonehenge, Chichen Itza, Easter Island, Great Wall), Glamour spells, Relic unique assets, four investigators and four Preludes.
- What it fixes
- Gives teams a genuinely different Ancient One puzzle and more item and encounter variety without a side board.
