Cthulhu Wars: The Art of Richard Luong<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis art book is lovely and full of Mythos horror.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

“I am extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work on Cthulhu Wars. Before the project, I had worked in games as an illustrator and concept artist. My art didn’t garner much attention. Cthulhu Wars launched and was a huge success. All of a sudden people took notice of my work and for the first time ever, I had fans.<\/p>\n

From this success, I decided to start a Facebook art page called Tentacles and Teeth. Slowly more and more people began to find my work and enjoy my visions! This inspired me to create more and evolve. This book is a collection of work that represents my evolution as an artist. With your help, I can make this book a reality.”<\/p>\n

Grim: A Roll for your Life Dice Game<\/strong><\/a>
\nLandan Smith suggested checking out this game and it looks pretty awesome! It’s a nice little dice game that looks like it’s super easy to pick up and enjoy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“The game is quick, family friendly, and designed for 2-6 players (although you can play with as many people as you want if you have enough copies of the game).<\/p>\n

The game was created by a group of friends during lunch breaks — and quickly evolved into something we’ve really enjoyed sharing with our friends and family and playing for hours. With the encouragement of said friends and family members we’ve decided to bring the game to Kickstarter to see if we can’t take this little game we made from a dream project into a reality!!”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Writer: Cthulhu Playing Cards<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis game has shown up on Kickstarter before, but they’ve revamped it. I think the pieces that go with it look really cool.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Each card represents part of a story. In the game there are 8 unique stories represented by a color and symbol. You can complete a story by getting 5 cards with the same symbol.<\/p>\n

The game has different rounds. The first round’s aim is to get one story, on the next 2 rounds you must complete 2 stories; and the next rounds 3. However you always start to play with only five cards, so you will need more cards to complete the stories, but beware, once you get them you will have to get rid of all the ones you have left! You will need to decide on your strategy!<\/p>\n

Each card has a unique ability, represented by its top icon. This ability enables you to get additional cards; to repeat your turn; to take cards from the discard pile or to get rid of your own cards. You will use the abilities depending on your strategy, the game\u2019s progress and the aim of the round.<\/p>\n

A round ends when a player meets the defined aim and manages to dispose of their remaining cards. The winner will mark their stories on the library card and the losers lose sanity points for the cards remaining in their hand.”<\/p>\n
