Elder Sign: Omens of Ice

Investigators trek into the Alaskan wilderness to investigate three newly awakened Ancient Ones tied to a century-old gold rush. The campaign moves from Anchorage into forest paths and mountain passes, with scenarios set in both summer and winter conditions. Players manage resources and character survival while resolving mysteries, confronting ferocious creatures and supernatural threats, and coping with environmental hazards such as frostbite, starvation, and isolation-induced madness. Gameplay emphasizes cooperative scenario play, risk management, and repeated attempts to thwart the escalating influence of the Ancient Ones before the cold and hunger overrun humanity.
