• Q: What board/card games are available based on Lovecraft or the Mythos?
  
  A: Although the “Call of Cthulhu” role-playing game is the primary form of Lovecraftian gaming, HPL’s influence has crept into other forms of games.
  
  
  • “Arkham Horror” (Chaosium 1050). Arkham Horror (sometimes referred to as the “board game version of Call of Cthulhu”) is a game for 1 to 8 players who move about the streets and buildings of Arkham, Mass., trying to close ‘gates’ that are opening in the space/time continuum. The catch is that monsters are pouring through those gates, making the streets particularly dangerous. Plus, closing gates requires the player to go through the gate (into some dangerous ‘outer world’), survive for 2 turns, return, and physically and/or magically blast the gate closed (sometimes tough).
    
    Although Arkham Horror was an overnight success, Chaosium has chosen to turn its back on this game. It is out of print, and Chaosium has no plans to bring it back, even though people are asking for it to be reprinted. Chaosium is also flatly rejecting any submissions for ‘expansions’ to Arkham Horror, even though (at least) two have been completely developed and submitted.
    
    
  • “Creatures & Cultists” (Pagan Publishing PAG2000). Includes 128 cards, 8 play sheets, and is for 3 to 5 players. “Our furiously fuggly card game is now available everywhere-fast, funny, and full of Cthulhoid delights! From 3-5 players take the roles of Cthulhu cultists, bent on world domination. Each player sends out their thugs, sorcerers, and monsters to obliterate the enemy. Special event cards like Suck The Presidents Brain and the notorious Girl Scout Raid add to the wacko mix” - Taken from the Pagan Publishing Catalog
    
    
  • “Dark Cults” (Dark House Publishing). This is a storytelling card game from 1983, written by Kenneth Rahman. The game is moody, and light on mechanics. The fantastic black and white artwork on the cards is also by Rahman (using the pseudonym “Eymoth”) and is worth the cost of the game itself. The logo for Dark House bears more than a passing resemblance to that of Arkham House.
    
    
  • “Illuminati” (Steve Jackson). Illuminati is a table top card game based around the concept of secretive illuminati groups plotting world domination. One of the standard illuminati groups are “The Servants of Cthulhu,” their objective being to destroy 8 ‘regular’ (non-illuminati) groups.
    
    
  • “Illuminati: New World Order” (Steve Jackson Games)
    
    
  • “Macho Women with Guns” (Blacksburg Tactical Research Center). Role-playing table-top board wargame (huh?). Perhaps the ultimate spoof game, it includes dread Bthulhu (illustrated wearing shorts & shades, & carrying a surfboard - horrifying!) and the fearsome Isaac Azathoth as monsters. A supplement includes a scenario in which the heroines are transported to Ryleh [sic - I think I got that right] and must fight their way back to the beach without being turned into Monster Chow (TM) or - horror of horrors - chipping their nail-polish.
    
    
  • “Mythos” (Chaosium). Mythos is Chaosium’s venture into the collectible card game market. Just as Arkham Horror is considered the “board game version of Call of Cthulhu,” Mythos is the card game version. Cards are distributed in 60-card starter decks and 13-card booster packs. The starter decks are formed from a 200-card starter set of cards, while the boosters are formed from a combination of the starter set and the booster sets. The three booster sets are titled Expeditions of Miskatonic University, Cthulhu Rising, and Legends of the Necronomicon. An independent set of cards, The Dreamlands, will also be available.
    
    
• Q: What role-playing games are available based on Lovecraft or the Mythos or have incorporated specific names/elements of the Mythos into the game?
  
  A: Several role-playing games have Lovecraftian elements incorporated into them, but only one, “Call of Cthulhu,” centers itself in Lovecraft’s dark universe. Many of the games and supplements below can be had for sale or auction in the rec.games.frp.marketplace newsgroup.
  
  
  • “Call of Cthulhu” (Chaosium) - Call of Cthulhu is the only ‘role-playing’ game devoted to the mythos. There are primarily 3 time frames that this game is set in (depending on your preference):
    
    1890’s - “Cthulhu by Gaslight” or just “Gaslight”
    1920’s - “Call of Cthulhu” (the original game)
    1990’s - “Cthulhu Now”
    
    In addition, there is one other ‘setting’ which is used (not in time, but in place):
    
    “Dreamlands” - based upon the dreamlands setting created by Lovecraft, et al.
    
    The basic premise of this game is that players act out (verbally, in general; some interactive role-playing might be used) the parts of “investigators” in a world where cults of evil humans, and strange monsters of both indigenous and outer-worldly origin are trying to bring about the re-emergence of the imprisoned Old Ones (or Great Old Ones). The actions of all game elements, besides those of the players, are controlled by the “Keeper of Arcane Secrets” (or “Keeper”). The ultimate goal of the investigators is to discover, and thwart, the evil minions of the Old Ones, without dying a horribly mutilating death, or going irrevocably insane.
    
    
  • 6070 - GURPS (“Generic Universal RolePlaying System”) CthulhuPunk (Steve Jackson Games) - A supplement called ‘CthulhuPunk’ was released in late March of 1995. It is a cross between “Call of Cthulhu” and GURPS Cyberpunk, using the GURPS system. Chapters include “The Cthulhu Mythos,” “The CthulhuPunk World,” “Characters,” “The CthulhuPunk Campaign,” “Investigators,” “Cultists,” “Mythos Bestiary,” “Adventure Seeds,” and “Conversions.”
    
    
  • Advanced Dungeons and Dragons (TSR) - AD&D is not devoted to the Cthulhu Mythos, but rather to fantasy/medieval adventuring. However, their first printing of a book called “Deities and Demigods” contained AD&D game statistics for the “Cthulhu Mythos.” While the list is pretty inconsistent with what Call of Cthulhu players (and Lovecraft readers in general) feel, it is still interesting for some DMs to throw a “shoggoth” into the forray on occasion, to keep players on their toes.
    
    
  • “Toon” (Steve Jackson) - The “Tooniversal Tour Guide” (Steve Jackson Games, supplement to TOON cartoon role-playing game) contains 21 pages on “The Crawl of Catchoolu,” the rules for an extremely silly Mythos spoof, where one can find such horrible tomes as “The Pop-Up Book of Forbidden Knowledge” and “The Necronomicomizomicon.” Also included are details of Mousekatonic University in Darkham, MA; horrible creatures such as “Yu-Go, the Fungi from Cleveland,” “Deep Clowns,” “Crisponians” and “The Insanity Loss Results Table” which includes such dire consequences as “Become an accountant” or even “Take up wargaming.”

• Q: What computer games are available based on Lovecraft or the Mythos?
  
  A: A few computer text and graphic adventures have been based on Lovecraft’s works.
  
  
  • Alone In the Dark (I-Motion/Interplay) - This is a graphic adventure made by a French company that recently made its way over here. It says on the box: “A virtural adventure inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft.” Set in the 20s at a haunted house in Louisiana (!). Very well done and quite creepy! Its sequel, “Alone in the Dark 2,” is not based on any Lovecraftian elements.
    
    “I’ve got them both [Lurking Horror and Alone in the Dark], and think they are VERY good at evoking the mood of a mythos-based story. I highly recommend them both to any HPL fan.” - Jeff (jeffo@INTERNIC.NET)
    
    
  • Daughter of Serpents (Millennium Interactive Limited) - Although the box to this game never mentions Lovecraft, the instruction manual states: “Daughter of Serpents was written as an original contribution to the Cthulhu Mythos.” The game is very attractive, although the storyline is a bit forced. It was designed by the same team that made “The Hound of Shadow,” but is far more sophisticated.
    
    
  • The Hound of Shadow (Eldritch Games, Ltd.) - Published in England, distributed by Electronic Arts. Graphic/text adventure set in 1920’s. Specifically mentions “the sinister world of H.P. Lovecraft.”
    
    
  • The Lurking Horror (Infocom) - An all-text adventure set in the present at a university inspired both by Miskatonic University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It is available in “The Lost Treasures of Infocom” collections.
    
    “I’ve got them both [Lurking Horror and Alone in the Dark], and think they are VERY good at evoking the mood of a mythos-based story. I highly recommend them both to any HPL fan.” - Jeff (jeffo@INTERNIC.NET)
    
    
  • Prisoner of Ice (I-Motion/Infogrames) - Like its predecessor, “Shadow of the Comet,” this graphic adventure game is licensed through Chaosium. It takes place in the Antarctic and has elements reminiscent of At the Mountains of Madness. The game supports SVGA (640x480x256) and has some very attractive animations.
    
    
  • Quake (id) – Quake has a number of Lovecraftian influences, including such creatures as Shub-Niggurath. Sandy Petersen, the creator of the “Call of Cthulhu” role-playing game, is a developer at id.
    
    
  • Shadow of the Comet (I-Motion/Infogrames) - Licensed through Chaosium, this graphic adventure game takes place in the town of “Illsmouth,” and plays like a CoC adventure. Occasionally, there are flaws in the game design (like forcing the player to use the keyboard when they’ve been using the mouse throughout the game thus far), but it’s still a very entertaining game.
