‘Lil Cthulhu’: The (Mostly) Unbeatable Card Game That Makes You Go Aww

by | Mar 7, 2016 | Horror World News | 0 comments

lilcthulhuDe-Evolution Studios is proud to announce the launch of its Kickstarter campaign. Beginning March 1st, Lil’ Cthulhu will officially be open for funding.

The game is over 95% feature complete, with the majority of its art and design elements finalized. For a pledge of $25, backers of the Kickstarter will be sent a copy of the game.

The Story of Lil’ Cthulhu:

Lil’ Cthulhu is the hell-spawn of the elder god Cthulhu. This “child” is so evil that he is causing his own father to go insane. That is saying a lot! It has gotten so bad that Cthulhu has called upon you, his loyal servants, to tend to this hellion of the deep. The Old One’s spawn needs babysitting. YOUare that sitter.

About the Game:

Lil’ Cthulhu is the quirky and evil card game about losing your sanity that you cannot hope to win. Mostly.

In this fast-paced game, players act as “Cultists of Cthulhu,” taking turns calming the creature with his demonic toys and back-stabbing each other, all in a mad dash to keep Lil’ Cthulhu happy… before going insane.

The goal is to be the first Cultist to offer up the toys that Lil’ Cthulhu is demanding or be the last sane cultist standing – whichever comes first. Like any proper eldritch horror story, you cannot truly win. You’re just trying to survive for as long as possible!

Players: 2-5

Game Length: 15-20 minutes

All Ages

The First “Grow With You” Game

“Grow With You” is De-Evolution Studio’s completely new way to play. “Grow With You” games feature modifiable rulesets that let you adapt the game to your specific playstyle. Lil’ Cthulhu becomes playable for any age group thanks to its adjustable rules. For novice players and children, the rules can be simplified, making the game less punishing. Or more difficult, if that’s your flavor! In Lil’ Cthulhu’s case, this can be easily adjusted by adding or removing color-coded cards from the game.
