The Lovecraftian Thing a Day (2018) No.80: Cthulhu Tales



Cthulhu Tales is a recently-released storytelling game by Cubicle 9 which I backed on Kickstarter some time ago. Whilst the box cover isn’t especially appealing from the standpoint of its visual aesthetics, the internal components are rather nice, including a large number of attractive, full-colour storytelling cards depicting themes and scenes of Lovecraftian horror. Whilst the game rules as they stand aren’t immediately solitaire friendly, I could envisage Cthulhu Tales being adapted and repurposed as a means of constructing randomised solitaire scenarios for something like the Call of Cthulhu rpg - so for now this one is going into my conceptual toolbox, with a view to developing it further for use with my speculative Lovecraftian solitaire rpg.
