Worshippers of Cthulhu

There are many games based on H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos. But a city-building strategy game in which you lead a cult to awaken Cthulhu so he can reshape the cosmos is really something new.

Worshippers of Cthulhu immediately looks like an Anno game set in a dark green Cthulhu setting - and that's roughly how it is, but the game doesn't reach the complexity of Anno 1800. But Crazy Goat Games' game doesn't aim for that either. In this mix of strategy, city-building and colony simulation, players lead the Cult of Cthulhu and manage their city to awaken Cthulhu. Players begin by building and managing cities on multiple islands of varying fertility, where resources are gathered, buildings constructed, resources generated, and the population/cult expanded. The population can be satisfied with certain products and then they level-up, with the population being divided into families, each with a preference for a job. Why is it important to keep your followers happy? Because a happy cultist generates more Eldritch favour - and a game stands or falls on Eldritch favour.
