Game Description

Immerse yourself in the unsettling universe of Cthulhu: Death May Die, a captivating board game that redefines the experience of cosmic horror inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. Forget the idea of stopping the arrival of the Elder Gods; in this macabre adventure set in the 1920s, you and your fellow investigators have a radically different goal: to summon them yourselves to annihilate them once and for all! Prepare to challenge the unspeakable with insane courage, in a desperate endeavor where the world's salvation rests on your shoulders. Published by CMON Global Limited in 2019, this title is designed for 1-5 players.

The distinctive element of Cthulhu: Death May Die is the madness that accompanies your investigators from the very beginning. It's not just about facing unspeakable horrors, but about managing your own mental instability, which can lead to unpredictable consequences. Every dice roll carries the risk of terrible or, surprisingly, advantageous actions. The long-term goal is clear: to defeat the Elder Gods by any means necessary, even if it means facing them head-on. Managing your sanity will be crucial to avoid succumbing prematurely and completing the mission.

The game is structured into multiple standalone episodes, each with a similar structure divided into two acts: before and after the summoning of the Elder God in question. The tension is palpable: the death of any character before the summoning results in immediate defeat. However, once the Horror is on the board, as long as at least one investigator survives, the hope of victory remains alive. This setup offers extraordinary replayability, allowing you to tackle the adventures in any order and with ever-changing groups of players. Each session of approximately 120 minutes is a unique and intense experience, rich in strategy and plot twists.
