Cthulhu Death May Die is absurd. The notion is that you're taking a few deranged investigators, complete with their own psychosis eval, on a mission to disrupt a ritual in order to actually bring a giant Elder God onto your map so you can punch him in the face. And it's oh so wonderful.  It took me a long time to get this game. I'm not sure why, honestly. I love horror themes in my cardboard.

Every cardboard box represents a world inside, and I'm so here for it.  So I'm resurrecting this blog for myself. I'm hopeful that perhaps some conversations can be started here, but if not, that's okay. Much like my probably-too-large collection of solo board games, I'm just fine if it...
