This Summer Slap the Mythos with Sticky Cthulhu

Apr 14, 2021

This summer will see Iello Games release a Mythos flavored game based on Sticky Chameleon. In Sticky Cthulhu, players will use their tentacles to grab and score a variety of Deep One tokens to score points. The game is for two to six players, ages 6+, plays in around 25 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $19.99 when it arrives in July.

About the game:

PH’NGLUI MGLW’NAFH STICKY CTHULHU. IÄ IÄ, IELLO FHTAGN !

Cthulhu has been awakened, and now, it’s time to eat! The Ancient One spreads his tentacles and devours anything he can grab! Sticky Cthulhu takes the fun of Sticky Chameleon in a version more insane than ever! Roll the dice, catch (and eat) the Cultists, and make your opponents go crazy! Electrifying, delirious, slimy: Sticky Cthulhu is insanely hilarious!

In Sticky Cthulhu, each player has a long sticky “tentacle”, and the table is covered with six types of creature tiles in six colors, along with a few investigator tokens.

To start a round, someone rolls the two dice — one showing a color, the other a creature — then everyone rushes to “grab” the appropriately colored creature tile by slapping it with their tentacle. The round doesn’t end until someone removes the tile from their tentacle and holds it in their hand. This player scores a point, then you do it all again.

As you collect “Deep Ones” point tokens, you’ll suffer curses that will force you to wield your tentacle in unusual ways. Whoever first scores the predetermined number of points wins!
