About this game
Don't Mess with Cthulhu Deluxe hides a handful of secret Cultists among your table of Investigators, and only careful reading of nervous behavior gives them away. Each round a leader deals face-down cards that get revealed one at a time, and the group must figure out whether to keep pushing toward the three Elder Signs you need to win or pull back before an Elder Thing wrecks everything. Cultists play along just convincingly enough to sabotage the mission from inside, and calling out the wrong person can be just as costly as trusting a traitor. This deluxe edition dresses the cosmic horror theme up with upgraded components. Tense, social, and built for accusations flying across the table.
