Yes, this is real. No, this isn't a displaced April Fool's joke (well, it kind of is, but we'll get to that). Yes, I absolutely love this. Fantasy Flight has announced the new The Meddling of Meowlathotep expansion for their Arkham Horror LCG. What started as an April Fool's joke garnered so much love and support that the company decided to do it for realsies.



From the post:

Earlier this year, Fantasy Flight Games announced a fake product for April Fool's Day called The Dogwich Legacy, a deluxe expansion for Barkham Horror: The Card Game. Our graphic designer, Chelzee, had so much fun morphing classic Arkham Horror: The Card Game art into new zoological horrors, and we were delighted to share the article with all of you. We thought that was all the project was: a fun piece for one day.

How wrong we were.

The response from you, our fans, was incredible; and you asked, nay, demanded that we make this product. Well, we listened, and today we are proud to announce Barkham Horror: The Meddling of Meowlathotep, a 100% real, playable standalone adventure for Arkham Horror: The Card Game—now available for pre-order through our website and at your local retailer!
