I want you to get some "bonus decks" when you purchase The Feast of Hemlock Vale IE box because lately FFG had been making Parallel Investigator with / ability. For this deck, please print Parallel Zoey's Front but use regular back. (Since you don't see the back while playing you don't actually have to purchase Dunwich Legacy Investigator Expansion...) Remember that she has 8 health. Enjoy!

► About "2 Packs Deck Guide"
　A series of decks made with the new distribution model in mind, requiring a Revised Core Set box + just 1 more Investigator Expansion box. ✂ character on the deck's name means the additional box it uses is The Feast of Hemlock Vale Investigator Expansion.
　It maximizes the chance of newcomers being able to build and learn to play the game, enjoying the story on Standard difficulty ASAP. They can then get into deck-building later if they wished to do so. See other decks in the "2 Packs Deck Guide" series here.

How to Play

Simple gameplay of collecting and slash enemies with Blessed Blade / Blade of Yoth, adjust damage precisely by spending 3 and/or Vicious Blow / Strong-Armed. Use Guided by Faith, Thorough Inquiry in your free time. Avoid enemy attack damage with Stall for Time and use Absolution to heal horror. Economy via 2x Emergency Cache (2) + 1x Bank Job, which you can use on Absolution / Miracle Wish.

The Doubles

The new Lv. 0 "Double" cards are great "toolbox" card for regular back Dunwich investigators since they have 5 splash slots to mix and match them and each card is concentrated in effect, in a sense. This deck showcases Bank Job and Thorough Inquiry to let Zoey borrow the power of and .

• Thorough Inquiry : Panic button to draw cards when you missed all the good stuff on opening hand. It also recovers from heavy discard effect from treacheries. Note that if you play this first on your 5 resources, if you get Blessed Blade (4), you have 1 action and 3 more resources to play it. It also has teamplay effect, so Zoey can do something for team as well when there is no enemy.

• Bank Job : Adds to the economy in addition to Emergency Cache. It also has teamplay effect, so Zoey can do something for team as well when there is no enemy.

  If you get this in your opening hand, always ask if anyone gets an expensive hand and want some extra resources, then you go first if so. You'll be left with 1 action and 3 resources though if you gave all of those. So this is safe only if you also get Blessed Blade (4) to play as your last action so you can handle things as a fighter in the next round.

Other Highlights

• Stall for Time : Very cool Evade card for Zoey to postpone a fight when there are a lot of enemies. You don't even lose Machete bonus or lose permission to hit Aloof enemy after evading with this card! Since it is a long evade, you can leisurely slash them the next or even next next round, no Retaliate, no Elusive.
• Guided by Faith : Very cool Investigate card for Zoey.
• Cat Mask : The + adds to Guided by Faith and Stall for Time. And generally fend off treacheries from your 6 sanity for cheap.
• Purified : Only 1 copy of this card, it does not immediately help the present test but added could be spent for +1 damage. You can get high succeed-by value on tests that Cat Mask works. It is likely test because you have both Guts and Absolution to add to it. You can use Guided by Faith on low shroud location or Stall for Time on low fight/evade enemy to get a good test to succeed-by. Blessed Blade (4) + Overpower is also a decent one when you have some already since the blade will not spend them while still getting +2 for over-succeed.
• Guard Dog : You can add when dog bites back if you haven't already in the phase. I'd love to have 1 more dog, but I don't want to remove anything other than Ofuda but it is a new card that's tempting to play with.
• Occult Reliquary ••• : Mainly to get you equip Zoey's Cross + Ancestral Token at once. Sometimes it can let you equip Blessed Blade (4) on both hands (exhaust different one to add 2 multiple times) and still can hold Eyes of Valusia.
• Eyes of Valusia •••• : Nothing stop you from repeating the Parley if you want. Don't forget that it add bonus to Stall for Time too. Also this and the Bonded card has Relic trait, while Blessed Blade (4) is not Relic. You might be glad about this random fact in a certain moment?
