Description Edit | History

Game description from the publisher:

Inside abandoned hospitals, secret laboratories, and forgotten cellars, scientists are conducting depraved experiments that will drag humanity to the brink of the abyss. Only a small group of investigators can discover the truth and put an end to these mad plots before it's too late...

Mansions of Madness: Forbidden Alchemy provides players with new investigators for the Mansions of Madness base game, as well as new Trauma, Mythos, and Combat cards for use in any story. Forbidden Alchemy also includes three new scenarios, in which investigators will encounter new rooms, monsters, items, clues, locks, and obstacles:

  • In "Return of the Reanimator", the investigators are tasked with entering a vermin-infested manor to seek the whereabouts of Doctor Herbert West, a reportedly insane scientist whose legendary experiments in reanimation led to his untimely demise.
  • "Yellow Matter" tells the grim tale of research into strange extraterrestrial beings. But who is the experimenter, and who is the subject?
  • "Lost in Time and Space" takes your Mansions of Madness experience to mind-bending new heights with the introduction of time travel! Travel back to the mid-nineteenth century or ahead to the mid-twenty-first in your search for the truth behind a strange and dangerous device.

With four new investigators, two monster types, nearly 250 new cards, 40 tokens and markers, and six detailed map tiles, Forbidden Alchemy introduces a host of new enhancements to your Mansions of Madness experience.

The revised printing of Mansions of Madness: Forbidden Alchemy, scheduled for release in May 2012, includes corrected cards and map set-ups for all three scenarios.

3 Fix of Lost in Time and Space (Version 1.01)
The original scenario Lost in Time and Space recieved terrible reviews on BGG. Hidden within the incoherent and boring objectives is an excellent story. So, I rewrote it - keeping the map, set-up and prologue the same. I broadly used the first two objectives but had to completely start from scratch with objective 1C. My inadequate thanks to everyone who has made a positive contribution to MOM on BGG. I am amazed at how good your ideas are, and how hard you work to improve the game. [Edited 19 May 12] Based on feedback I'm going to submit a new version. This will include the following changes: 1. Hunters of Time & Space cost increased by 1 and only one hound on the board at a time (Thanks to Roberta for this idea). 2. Objectives 1A and 1B modified to fit in better with the...
