Elder Sign
What is the loss condition in Elder Sign: do you lose only when every investigator is devoured?
The rulebook's list of game-ending conditions settles it, although forum replies argued the other way.

Under the base rules, yes. The rulebook lists three game-ending conditions: sealing the Ancient One, defeating it, and every investigator being devoured. Filling the doom track only awakens the Ancient One, and devoured investigators are not replaced once the battle has begun, so the loss comes when the last investigator falls. Some Ancient Ones and expansions add their own loss conditions on their cards.
