Choose "even" or "odd".

Each investigator reveals each non-weakness card in their hand with a cost matching the chosen option. In player order, each investigator may choose to either draw 1 card from their deck, or play 1 card they revealed from their hand (paying its cost).

FAQs

(from the official FAQ or responses to the official rules question form)
  • Q: What happens when I use Cosmic Revelation's ability while an investigator has a card with an undefined cost (-) in their hand? A: Cards with an undefined cost (-) are not considered to have an even or odd cost while in hand. As such, they cannot be revealed nor played via the effect of Cosmic Revelation.

Cosmic Revelation turns a Play Action and a card in your hand into one Draw or Play action for each player at your table. Assuming you value every card in your hand as being worth one action, Cosmic Revelation's value scales proportional to the player count:

Personally, I tend to play 3-Player or 4-Player campaigns, so I expect Cosmic Revelation to become a staple at my table. Even if no one at the table needs (or can't afford) to play cards from their hand, free card draw is almost always helpful.

I would add that in 2+ player games you give other players the possibility to play a card during your turn. And with Farsight, you can play Cosmic revelation as a free action and get an other player to play a soak before you try to attack an enemy with Retaliate (for example). — AlexP · 268
Yeah, or in general it's a great way to circumvent attacks of opportunity when playing this fast if your surprise-engaged. — AlderSign · 391

definitely a card designed with Agatha Crane's ability in mind

playable in either class flavor and desperately wants to played fast

certainly higher player counts encouraged, but even solo its perfectly fine to play for free off her trigger after committing it

It has been mentioned in previous reviews ans comment that:

  • it gives additional actions at 3 / 4 players,
  • it allows investigator A to play a card during investigator B's turn,
  • it allows this investigator A to avoid an attack of opportunity,
  • with Farsight you can give it Fast, to get an additional action bonus and potentially to avoid an other AoO.

With the Spell trait, you can also attach it to Dayana Esperence in a support deck.

Oh man, the Esperence idea sounds sick. Especially considering how easy it is to refill her secrets these days. — OrionAnderson · 122
