Seiji Kanai’s hit Love Letter continues to prove the little game has huge staying power as the core design gets another incarnation from AEG this July. Lovecraft Letter isn’t simply a re-theming of the game though with new mechanics entering play as gamers will aim to unearth eldritch knowledge while defeating their rivals. This is a Lovecraftian game so you know there’s always a chance insanity will unravel your machinations before final victory.
Lovecraft Letter is set for release on July 19th and will carry an MSRP of $29.99.
From AEG:
A mind-shattering journey into the world of HP Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos warped into the shape of a Love Letter experience.
You’re not trying to gain affection from the Princess. You are trying to eliminate your rivals for power as you seek to understand the cosmic horror that lurks just beyond what we foolishly call “reality”.
In each round only one player will prevail. Use deduction and luck to eliminate other players or watch as their own madness consumes them.
Will you accept madness as the price that must be paid for Knowledge Man Was Not Meant to Know? Or will you attempt to hold the shreds of your sanity together in the face of eldritch nightmares attempting to enter and destroy our world?
