Eldritch Horror Compatible Game Crate

I really like this crate, however it's quite a chore to build. Most parts fit together well but there are a few pieces that need to be trimmed to allow for them to fit. It would be nice if the clue tokens storage had more dividers to keep the expansions separate, however I made my own dividers using pieces of the wooden trees the parts came on. I use the Dragon Shield sleeves and was able to fit all of the cards with room to spare.

I received the crate in a timely manner and it is pretty good quality. Looks just like what I’ve seen in videos, pictures and reviews. Some issues I ran into was a couple places the laser engraving was either very light with the lettering, or left burn marks on some of the pieces. I decided to stain everything, so that covered up the burn marks. Unfortunately the parts where the laser didn’t emphasize the letters enough I can’t really do anything about. The other problem that I ran into was one of the pieces which ends up being where you stack the spell, item and conditions cards was the wood was hollow in some places. So where the laser cut for the shelf cuts, when I removed the piece the wood broke because it was hollow. I don’t know how they could try to detect this in the future, but it just sucks that it broke and was hollow. Overall the crate was nice and I felt the directions were straight forward. It helped they have a YouTube video on how to put it together as well.

Purchased the Eldritch Artifact crate along with gate stands, player boards, and two extra divider sets for Eldritch Horror. Took a total of about 6 hours to build and another 90 minutes to get the game in the crate but it is just amazing. There is also a little add on, that comes with the crate, for the four extra explores to fit. I assume that FFG released another expansion after the crate was released, but it’s ok, the crate holds everything with a little room for growth. I play right out of the crate with the exception of expedition decks. But makes set up and tear down so much easier. Great crate for a great game. Highly recommend.

I love the quality and how unique all the spaces are. This was a great purchase.

There was one part that didn't fit properly. I had to slice parts with a utility knife to make it fit. I knew up front that it was not kallax compatible, but I don't understand why. The box could have been a bit lower?

Although there are a lot of instruction videos, I was a bit lost where each type of card/monster should go. Also, in the video, there were more dividers, resulting in a bit more structure.

The box does not minimize shelf space a lot, but it facilitates gameplay enourmously!

I am hesitating about the Arkham crate, but mostly because sleeved investigator sheets in this box did fit fit barely and the pricing.

Great box, five hours to assemble.
thanks to the YouTube video which really helped !

This is a very well designed storage system for Eldritch Horror and all it's expansions. Lots of room for the cards, meaning sleeved cards and unsleeved work just fine, with plenty of room. Could have done with a few more dividers included, instead of having to buy them separate, but that's not a big deal. The "feet" were a bit tougher to put together, mostly because they weren't as snug as I'd hoped, and since they have to bear the weight of the entire crate, I need them to be very sturdy and secure. So far they seem OK, but I've been toying with putting some nails in them just to make sure they don't fall apart.

Overall, though, I am very pleased with the purchase.

My husband and I have so many games with multiple expansions that we had to start consolidating and throwing away the original boxes (so that we had room to actually play them). Eldritch Horror is one of our favorite games, and this crate looks AMAZING when it’s done. It keeps all the pieces, cards, boards, characters, etc. organized and sorted so we can play sooner and clean up faster. It’s a bit on the heavy side when full, but it’s definitely not a flimsy piece of cardboard! It was a bit challenging to put together, but is definitely doable with two people, some wood glue, a rubber mallet, and several hours’ time. I’d also recommend a piece of sand paper to get rid of the little burrs that can end up where the wooden pieces were held together for shipping. Also, learn from my fail: do NOT, for any reason, pop out all the pieces from their frames as soon as you sit down to assemble this! I love popping out all the game pieces when we get a new game, so I automatically did this as soon as I opened the box to “save time” (before my husband saw what I was doing). I ended up having to tape every single piece back into the frame with frog tape so we could tell which pieces were which. To Broken Token: you may want to put a big sign in the box (one that CAN’T be missed or set aside before getting to the individual sets) instead of just the warning in the instructions. Some of us don’t wait for instructions.

This was a great option for us once we got several expansions. It does require assembly - so be prepared - but we like the results. The one criticism is that there aren't enough dividers for the large cards. I would like the ability to purchase more as needed for the level of organization I am looking for.

I had no issues putting it together and it works as intended. Great method for storing everything.

Eldritch Horror is my favorite game and the set up is truly off-putting. The Artifact Crate takes the stress out of getting this game to the table.
I was on the fence about dropping $200 for a box, but I can honestly say that it was worth every penny.

fantastic quality and well packaged. easy to assemble!

Amazing and affordable way to store everything for Eldritch Horror!

Absolutely love this crate! It holds everything all in one place and makes game set up and put up much easier. It does take a while to assemble but the YouTube video is extremely helpful. Thanks for such a great product!

Overall this is an excellent storage solution. It does take a fair amount of work to put together ... but I imagine most know what they are in for when they order this beast. A couple of issues which takes this from a 5 star rating down to a 4. First, the labeling on some trays was extremely faded and almost unreadable. For a normal insert I could overlook this ... but for how much this one costs, that is an issue. Second, this does technically fit into a Kallax cube ... but the problem is there is so little room left around it that if you put it in a Kallax you would probably never get it back out. Some handles or something need to be designed into the exterior in some way so you can pull it back out. Third. This needs to come with more dividers in the base set and not as an added item.

Holds everything and Broken Token Gate Stands and Player Boards as well!

Of the many items I've purchased from TBK, this was by far the toughest build, but man has it been worth it. I ran into a couple issues, with which TBK's outstanding customer support was able to assist. The design is elegant and compact with enough room to fit all expansions. Truly a must-have!

2nd TBT crate purchase, and despite some manufacturing issues in the beginning (quickly resolved by customer service), my favorite crate of all time. Why not 5 stars? Will get to that soon. But first, the pros:

The functionality of this crate meets all needs, and then some. Because of the sacred upgrade tray, even though I capsule my tokens, I can store the ones that don’t fit in their intended locations in this “bonus” tray. The engravings on the tray fronts make life SO much easier, because you can immediately tell exactly where everything is located. And the investigator token tray—I LOVE IT!!!!! Instead of having to store these tokens apart from their stands, I have a place where they all fit together like one big, happy family. The artwork on the lid is exquisite without being overdone, so if you want to place your own logo decals, there’s room for it. And the best thing? This crate can be repurposed for all types of other games! I actually bought a 2nd crate, built it with the graphics flipped inward except on a few of the trays whose labels still applied, and used it to store my Arkham Horror Third Edition game. The convenience of this is immeasurable. Also worth noting that if someone doesn’t want to use a tray for it’s intended purpose, all you have to do is flip the label graphic inward, and BOOM! You can throw anything you want in there and hand label it yourself. The card holders are amazing and roomy; the mini cards are positioned in a great place if you want to utilize the crate itself as a card holder for them during gameplay. The way the dividers are placed in the trays means you don’t absolutely have to glue them in, meaning you can rearrange or omit them as you wish, adding more versatility if you capsule your tokens or just want to arrange things differently. The board game and manual space is large enough to store other bits and bobs, such as coin capsule stands in case you capsule your gate tokens. I. Love. This. Crate.

But there are cons. There must’ve been a large batch that was packaged up with incorrect directions and/or missing panels. Both crates came with the wrong directions; one with a missing panel (that TBT quickly shipped to me free of charge). The main organizer unit is so frustrating and painful to assemble (but worth it). Tip from someone who did it both ways: put it together dry, then sweep glue on all the seams after you’ve affixed it to the base; while time consuming and unorthodox, it reduces the amount of tilting/glue drying too quickly/etc, and in the end leads to a better fit when putting on the lid. The mini card holder area, while convenient for gameplay, is in a precarious position. If you tip the crate by accident, all the cards come sliding right out (learned my lesson the hard way). As always, the trays don’t account for capsuled tokens; also, some of the trays provide large space for only what adds up to a few tokens (resources tray?) and others small spaces for what ends up being an overage of tokens (health, sanity, clues...). There is a definite lack of dividers, and although they make the card dividers available for purchase separately, they don’t offer extra monster or gate dividers. I want enough monster dividers to separate all my monsters, both common and unique, by expansion; however, the amount provided is insufficient, even when I borrowed a few from the 2nd crate I bought. While the investigator sheet tray has an insert for additional investigator tokens, which inevitably holds the sheets in place, the ancient ones tray isn’t so lucky so these sheets slide around. Even in sleeves, I don’t like that thought. And there’s extra bonus space in the investigator tray where nothing actually goes, which would be awesome ... except for the big cut out in what I can only assume is in anticipation of tarot sized cards that will never come. I want to mod this to fill the hole so that space is actually usable in some fashion. The card divider tentacle design is cute but impractical; the tentacles crack off constantly (luckily it’s usually unnoticeable). And finally ... the gate tray. “Argh” does not come close to my frustration. Again, no accounting for capsuled tokens. While I can manage to fit all of the main playing board’s gates in the tray (and then store special board gates in a separate tray), the capsules make them too tall to fit. So then I had to remove about six or so, move those into another tray, and lean the capsuled gate tokens on a diagonal so they could fit properly. This means I couldn’t even use a divider to separate out my gates. It’s annoying.

Even with all these complaints, I would never give up this crate, gun to my head. It’s so solid and well-executed, and the upgrade tray saves lives (by lives, I mean game component extras). It’s multifunctional and, while a definite showpiece, conveniently structured so that ease of gameplay is retained and someone who plays the game a ton isn’t deterred. I kind of want to get this for three m...

I bought this crate off Amazon’s official Broken Token store. Having previously gotten the Mansions of Madness crate and being pleased with its execution, I was very excited to receive the EH crate. Although the quality and artwork is even better than the MoM crate, I immediately noticed several problems. 1) the wrong directions were included (Gloomhaven crate instead of EH so I had to download/print instead). 2) One of the sheets was broken on the edge so it had lost its identifier number; luckily the integral pieces were still okay. And finally 3) Sheet 6 was completely missing! It’s an integral part of the crate build process so I am pretty upset. I attempted calling during business hours, left messages, and opened an online ticket, but I’ve still not gotten a response. If a sheet is missing from any of these kits, you’re pretty much screwed I guess, so to me it wasn’t worth the price tag. And now I’m worried that I went ahead and purchased the Cosmic Encounters crate directly through this site, fearing the same problem will occur.

Since the game is finished and all components are known, requiring extra dividers in order to organize it seems standard. Having them sold separately is a bit annoying, given the game component quantity is known. Maybe I only care because to Canada that second order will cost $10 for the dividers and $30 for shipping on top. I'll add the 4 player card organizers as well, I think. I guess shipping is probably free to Americans, so for most of you it's a non issue. But for me this aspect of having to pay so much in shipping twice was quite annoying. Competing Chinese companies manage to ship things to Canada over an ocean for free, so you may not even be aware of the size of the market up here that you're missing out on. However, otherwise I am happy and it appears to be the definitive way to store everything. Stained and decorated it will fill the table for years to come. It does not fit in a standard kallax sized hole fyi.

Great kit, only thing is that I messed up twice with the building of it. Just one part I missed. Had to use a saw on both occasions to make it fit. Fixed ok but would have been awesome if the instructions were slightly more clear. The lid sometimes catches onto the rest but I think that is my own fault during the glueing in the assembly step.

All put together the crate does it's job well. It had a couple rough edges that needed to be sanded down and without glue this thing would not hold together like most of the other broken token stuff does. All fixable just small things that make it less than 5 star for me.

Great product. Easy to put together.
