Pocket Madness

Get ready for a wild ride into the dark world of the Cthulhu Mythos with Pocket Madness! In this fast-paced and chaotic card game, you and your friends become desperate cultists, trying to invoke ancient powers while driving each other mad. The goal? To be the last sane cultist (or the least insane) to achieve victory, of course!

The game unfolds with a row of face-up cards visible to all, from which you can take one to three cards per turn. But be careful, as the row can disappear quickly! Want to speed things up? You can open a portal by gathering three or more cards of the same type to activate a special power. Each portal has a unique effect, and using it at the right time can turn the game around. Oh, and if someone steals your portal, too bad for you!

Another option is to start an investigation by discarding specific cards. The catch is that this grants madness tokens to all other players. And madness is the central theme here: the more madness tokens you accumulate, the closer you are to the end of the game – and to losing! The round ends when someone runs out of cards or the card row is depleted. At the end of the round, everyone gains more madness tokens based on the cards still in their hand. If you manage to empty your hand, you get temporary relief, and others gain more madness. The game ends when a player reaches ten or more madness tokens, and whoever has the fewest tokens (and is still in the game) wins. It's an insane race against time and sanity!
