P. Lovecraft. During play, one to five players explore a location together to unravel a mystery, overcome creatures, befriend non-player characters, and solve puzzles. Players share the same team win or lose condition, aiming to piece together scenario evidence and clues by using an integrated companion app. The booklet introduces game setup and components, while directing players to the Rules Reference for omitted interactions.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/","Story & Novel",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/mansions-of-madness-rules-learn-to-play/515220/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/mansions-of-madness-rules-learn-to-play/515220.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Patrick","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-27","2026-10-06",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",8,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"How many players can play Mansions of Madness together?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"One to five players can explore and investigate together in a cooperative team.","Answer",{"name":66,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":67},"What is the win/lose condition in the game?",{"text":68,"@type":64},"All players are on the same team and win or lose together as a group.",{"name":70,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":71},"What should players do when rules or interactions are unclear?",{"text":72,"@type":64},"Consult the Rules Reference for questions that arise during gameplay, since this booklet omits many rules and interactions.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":75,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":77,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":79,"site_id":7},515220,1791345084,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"success",{"doc_id":79,"user_id":84,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":85,"doc_module":4,"category_id":22,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":86,"file_id":87,"file_url":88,"file_type":89,"file_size":90,"view_count":55,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":91,"language":92,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":93,"faqs":94,"seo_title":95,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":96,"read_time":97},549758146520,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/avatar/80002397d8c0411e94?_k=1775819394049821470","®  \n®  \nThe house on The hill  \nThe moon loomed huge and awful in the sky. Rita was having second thoughts about the whole business, standing there alone under the eyes of the stars. The longer she stood there, looking up at the heavens, the further she saw, and the limitless gulf of infinity widened above her. She looked away, looked at the house sprawling on top of the hill, anything to avoid that awful moon, that impossible sky.  \nThe house was not an improvement. Dark and monolithic, a silent sentinel looking down over the Miskatonic River valley below, over the sleeping city of Arkham, Massachusetts. Its silence was malevolent, and Rita could not believe she had thought she would go inside, missing students or no.  \n“Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feeling as to sight?” The voice came from down the hill, pitched to carry, and Rita could see Yorick approaching, a lantern glowing in one hand.“Or art thou but a dagger of the mind, a false creation, proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?”She stepped out from where she lurked under an apple tree, waving. She had never been so happy to see the loony old man in her life.  \n“What,” she said, “is Horatio there?”  \n“Apiece of him,” Yorick answered. He flourished a bow.“Enter the gravedigger, stage right. Is our company assembled?”  \n“Jes’you and me so far, Yorick.” She looked back up the hill at the evil house. “I guess no one else is comin’. Might as well head home and get some sleep.”  \n“Screw your courage to the sticking place, my friend.” The gravedigger clapped her on the shoulder. He smelled of earth, of normal things she could touch and taste. Infinity did not seem so bad. “The others will be along directly.” He nodded along the lane, and Rita turned. Light stabbed through the darkness, and soon became a pair of headlights, careening and caroming up the street ahead of a growling and, to Rita’s eyes, quite expensive automobile.  \nThe car came to a stop and quieted, the lights flickering out. Preston Fairmont stepped out of the driver’s side door, followed by an odd-looking old white lady Rita had never seen before; Agatha Crane, she presumed.“Now, listen,” said Fairmont, first to speak as always. “I have been having some second thoughts about all this. First of all, it is not at all proper to be bringing a young girl anda … uh … ”  \n“Old lady?”suggested Agatha with a grin that Rita decided looked dangerous.  \n“Yes. Quite. Well. Anyway, it is only natural that you would be frightened by such a–”  \n“If your driving did not frighten me, Ido not see how anything inside that house can.”Agatha stepped toward Rita and extended one hand. “Agatha  \nCrane, Parapsychologist. You must be Rita.”“Yes’m,” said Rita.  \n“And unless I miss my guess, this is William Yorick, our resident thespian.”Yorick gave his little bow again.  \n“The lady is too kind. The dead are my only audience these days, although I could not ask for any more attentive than they.”  \n“Then we are all here. Let us be about our business.” The old lady pulled open the leather satchel in her hand and settled the oddest piece  \nof headgear Rita had ever seen over her soft, white curls. It was like a jeweler’s eyepiece, with extra lenses on delicate, wire arms.  \nThey pushed through the gate, Fairmont bringing up the rear and complaining. “Technically, this is breaking and entering,” he said. “We have no legal right to be here! If Iam caught, it could be incredibly embarrassing for my business associates.”  \n“I thought you bought the house,” murmured Rita. The closer the awful thing grew, the stronger the urge to whisper, as if not to wake it.  \n“I tried to buy the house, which is how we found out who owns it now, yes. But the sale was never completed, because the—look, really, oughtn’t we come back in the morning?”  \nA scream cut through the night air from somewhere inside the mansion, and Agatha stomped up the steps to reach for the door handle.  \n“No,” said Fairmont, tugging at his tie.“No, I suppose not.”  \nusin","cbCaijV1LD6eIPPw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijV1LD6eIPPw","pdf",3488005,20,"English","# Game overview\n## Cooperative gameplay\n## Objective and challenges\n# Components\n## Rules Reference\n## Item and card sets\n## Tokens, dice, and conversion kit","[{\"question\":\"How many players can play Mansions of Madness together?\",\"answer\":\"One to five players can explore and investigate together in a cooperative team.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the win/lose condition in the game?\",\"answer\":\"All players are on the same team and win or lose together as a group.\"},{\"question\":\"What should players do when rules or interactions are unclear?\",\"answer\":\"Consult the Rules Reference for questions that arise during gameplay, since this booklet omits many rules and interactions.\"}]","Mansions of Madness Rules - Learn to Play | PDF",1791309788,31,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,103,107,111,116,121,126,130,134,137,141],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":108,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":112,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":113,"show_sort_weight":114,"slug":115},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":117,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":118,"show_sort_weight":119,"slug":120},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":122,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":123,"show_sort_weight":124,"slug":125},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":127,"show_sort_weight":128,"slug":129},"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":91,"slug":133},9,"Religion & Spirituality","religion-spirituality",{"id":91,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":135,"show_sort_weight":91,"slug":136},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":138,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":139,"show_sort_weight":138,"slug":140},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":142,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":143,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":144},19,"General","general"]
