About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an adventure in the Hundred Acre Wood like you've never seen before! In The Call of Pooh-Thulhu, innocence gives way to terror when Christopher Robin finds a mysterious book from his father's library. What starts as an innocent game among friends, with Piglet and Tigger drawing symbols and Christopher Robin reading strange passages, quickly turns into a cosmic nightmare. A screeching, otherworldly sound erupts, the symbols dissipate into a dark mist, and suddenly, all falls silent... but the calm is merely the precursor to chaos. The next morning, dread sets in: Christopher Robin returns to the Wood with hollow eyes and a knife in hand, overcome by a wicked force. Now, you and your friends must run, hide, and fight to survive. But beware, some of your companions may have already succumbed to the influence of ancient entities! The base game includes 72 cards, rules, and dice, all for a game lasting about 30 minutes. Play as one of the lovable (and now terrified) friends from the Hundred Acre Wood, fleeing relentless monsters. Scavenge for items to defend yourself, try hiding, or even cast arcane spells. Grab your trusty umbrella or sharpen a stick, as you'll need all the help you can get to face these fiends and avoid joining their ranks. Cooperation is key to survival, but madness lurks around every corner!
