Adventure packs are designed to expand and deepen your adventures.You must have a copy of Escape the Dark Castle to use one. In terms of content, each Adventure Pack follows a similar format - adding new chapters, characters and items to the game. Each pack also introduces a new mechanic which brings a little more complexity - but these new elements are always optional. You can play the chapter cards from an Adventure Pack in order (as in, not shuffled) as a standalone themed quest of it's own. Alternatively, you can mix the new chapter cards into the contents of the main game for even greater variety. If you change your mind later, you can easily separate the cards by set, using the unique codes subtlety printed onto each card.
