Chez Cthulhu

Share a FLAT with the Ancient One!

 

WG meets Lovecraft – that makes you think of dust under the bed and old pizza remnants on the sofa – and it becomes true in this newest edition within the Chez Geek game family. You and your flat mates worship the Ancient One and try to reach your personal Slack Goal! You are given a job, maybe gravedigger or something equally interesting, and get cards belonging to the „Life“ variety  - and that can be anything, a person or a pet, an item, an activity or an „anytime“ card. Your turn starts with drawing cards, rolling dice to get rid of unwanted persons room or to use cards, invite persons, use your free time to go shopping or other activities and finally you discard cards. And as we are flatmating in Cthulhu, madness is part of daily life and has its own rules: Madness interacts with slack, once you have accumulated a certain amount of madness, you do not take further madness, but take slack instead.

Chez Cthulhu can be combined with Chez Geek and other editions, but you must treat any reference on cigarettes to mean tentacles and vice versa! Is there a problem? Well, results can be disquieting, but this is Cthulhu, remember, and in Cthulhu TV cards can annul cards for free time that you just played and if somebody sent the Manga girl into your room, you really do have a problem, even if you did not take madness with you, but you can do so if you like. Oh, and if you want to remove a “sleep”-card, you need to manage a tête-á-tête with a result of 5 slack! I knew that you would set out now immediately to get a copy of Chuz Cthulhu! But are you sure you can get it by using “shopping”?
