Aboard a forgotten island town off the coast of 1920s New Arkhamoore, you and your friends take on the roles of unique characters, each with their own special powers. But make no mistake, the town's apparent peace is about to be shattered by cosmic horrors emerging from the dense sea fog. Your objective? To work as a team to decipher the Necronomicon, unmask the Great Old One, and most importantly, seal the portals before everyone's sanity completely unravels. To achieve this, you'll have to embrace the very madness plaguing the town, using it as a valuable resource. This madness can grant you extra movement, more potent attacks, and even cosmic intellect to translate the forbidden book's pages and combat the shamblers. But be warned, the line between sanity and insanity is thin, and pushing too far can mean defeat for everyone. The game features innovative bag-building and 'push your luck' mechanics, plus a spinner that perfectly captures the chaos and unpredictability of the Lovecraft universe. With meaningful decisions and layered strategies, all packed into a compact box with easy-to-understand rules, Tiny Epic Cthulhu is an exciting addition to the acclaimed Tiny Epic series. ## FAQ ### How many players can play Tiny Epic Cthulhu?
