The Elder Gods are coming and the only way to stop them is to destroy all 4 Gates! You will only succeed by strategically deciding which items to keep and tactically deciding which to items use along your adventure!

Hand of Cthulhu is an 18 card in-hand solo game designed by Simon Filice. In Hand of Cthulhu, players fight through an onslaught of monsters until they reach a Gate to worlds beyond our own. There are 13 cards between you and each Gate and each card is an Encounter that is either a Bane or Boon. To fight Monsters, you must use your Items wisely and decide on which Items to keep and which ones to use. Once you get to a Gate, you will exploit its fractures to destroy it. Once you destroy the fourth gate you have successfully saved our universe and won! But if you ever lose all of your health, you die, and if you lose all of your sanity, you go insane and lose the game!

What do you get?

16 Encounter cards, 1 Gate card, 1 Shop/Health Dial card, and 1 Rule Booklet. 1 Kickstarter Exclusive Mini Expansion Card. 1 Hand of Cthulhu One Card Maze.
