A few months ago I purchased (on Amazon) a copy of Pathfinder Adventure Card Game.
After having enjoyed the first Adventure deck (included with the Base set), I also bought (again on Amazon) the second and third adventure deck to go ahead in the next scenarios of the story.
Big surprise, when I opened Skinsaw Murders and started shuffling the new cards with the Base set, I realized the new cards are different!
The back of the cards is noticeably darker than in the base set, see photo of shuffled cards, the new cards are clearly recognizable among the lighter ones of the base set: photo 1.

On top of this, also the size of the cards is slightly different, so they stand out a bit when together, see photo: photo 2.

Even though it's a collaborative game, the fact that the new cards are clearly recognizable gives away a lot of unintended information during the game (quite easy to guess where the villain and henchmen are!), so the game is completely spoiled!
I also checked the third deck (Hook Mountain Massacre), and it shows the same darker backs of the second, see photo (the new deck, on the right, is still in its package): photo 3.

Now I guess that the problem is with the Base set, so any following Adventure deck will be different than the Base cards.
Whatever the problem is, we cannot play with different cards!

Is anybody encountering the same issue?
Who can help here?
