Myths of Cthulhu. Darkness over Innsmouth and In the Mountains of Madness

Gloom over Innsmouth deck features the main characters from Lovecraft`s famous novel: Robert Olmsted, Eliza Orne, Zadock Allen, Professor Armitage and the terrifying deep seamen along with Mother Hydra and Father Dagon.

The deck "In the Mountains of Madness" contains all the characters of another work by G.F. Lovecraft: William Dyer, Danforth, the King in Yellow, old men, shoggoths and other creepy monsters from Antarctica. Both decks can be combined with decks from other editions. Pay attention to the issue - "Monsters vs. Heroes - Victorian Horrors".

Card filler for bluffing and deduction

Take one of these decks if there are 2-4 players in the game. For 5-8 players, combine these two decks. At the beginning of the game, participants receive secret faction cards. The deck of character cards is shuffled. Each player receives three random character cards.

Game progress

Participants take turns. During his turn, the player performs one of 2 actions:

• plays a card from hand. The player places the card in front of him or in the opponent`s playing area and immediately applies its effects.
• takes a card from the deck into his hand. A player cannot have more than 3 cards in his hand. 

End of the game

They play until the deck runs out. Players discard the remaining cards in their hands and reveal their faction cards.

• If the player is playing as heroes, each hero symbol on the cards played gives 1 point, and each monster symbol subtracts 1 point.
• If the player is playing as monsters, each monster symbol on the cards played gives 1 point, and each hero symbol subtracts 1 point.

You will get 2 additional points if you have one or both of the characters drawn on your faction card in front of you.

The player with the most points wins.
