How to play The Big Book of Madness

The Big Book of Madness is a cooperative card game for 2 to 5 players that takes 60 to 90 minutes. On each turn, players use cards from their hands to deal with threats, improve their decks, and coordinate what resources the group needs next. It suits a group that wants a moderately involved fantasy strategy game and is happy to plan together under pressure.
