An unspeakable horror awakens. You know him, you loved him, he gave you powers that the rest of us can only dream about. You know that when he wakes up, he'll eat everything in his path. You have only one choice: you must show an understanding of the Upper Arcanum in relation to other sectists and be its right hand on its planes of dimensional domination.
The problem comes when the rest of the sectarian also want to survive the Lord's awakening, and some of them have more knowledge than you. Use the grimoire and show the Lord that your wisdom is above all others! Wake up, Cthulhu! is a card game for 2 to 4 players in which you must become the player with the most arcane knowledge points in possession on the board when Scion of the Netherworld wakes up.
To do this, you have a set of Ingredients, represented by symbols, whose combination will allow you to cast spells that will allow you to extract the Grimoire. Some spells allow you to acquire such knowledge (arcane points on the board) and others will give you the opportunity to show your wisdom through different strategies. But be careful, at the end of each round, a curse falls on the players (the use of dark forces has its consequences) and can put the balance one way or another. Some of these curses may awaken the Horror earlier than expected and all players will be devoured, so sometimes they must join forces before continuing the fight.
Contents of the box : 1 tray, 60 obscure knowledge cards (15 green, 15 blue, 15 red, 15 yellow), 1 Cthulhu mepple, 100 cards (64 ingredient cards, 36 Grimorius cards).
