Board Game Theme









" In a world gone mad, the mad are our only hope. "


-  When planning my board game a bunch of different themes popped through my head.  I was originally going to go with a high fantasy theme.  I realized that this had been done over and over, so I decided to go with a modern day Cthuluesque horror story driven game, with traditional fantasy classes that have a modern flair, such as a lumberbarian with chainsaws, or a meth lab wizard or the like.

-  The game will take place during modern times after cultists have successfully helped Cthulu (or some other being of madness depending on copyright)  transverse the unknown and manifest itself upon our plane, basically mid apocalypse.  The fate of the world will fall to people deemed mad before the incursion, as the sway of Cthulu didn't have any effect on them.  Players will fight off Cultists, creatures, "madlings", and of course final bosses as they play through the narrative.

-  This game will be innately dark, with some dark and light humor.


  This is my chosen color scheme:
