The experience
True cooperation
Rise of Myths: Cthulhu is designed for investigators to work as a team. Combine actions, carry out joint attacks and make the most of the synergies between your characters and strategies.
You can also face the horror solo, retaining the tactical depth and progression that define the game.
Evolve after every run
Quick starts and fast combat keep the game moving. Each run opens up new possibilities for developing your deck and trying different combinations.
Each investigator offers unique mechanisms and several play styles, bringing variety and fresh decisions to every game.
Enemies that force you to rethink your strategy
The Great Old Ones serve as the final bosses of each location, each with distinct mechanisms. Repeating the same strategy will not be enough: study each threat, adapt your deck and coordinate with your fellow investigators.
Different difficulty levels let you tailor the challenge to your group’s experience and preferences.
