Fans have asked for this for a long time. It’s a cost-effective tabletop sized version of Cthulhu Wars designed for two players, with some incredible rule twists. The game plays quickly with an engaging table presence. If you love the Cthulhu mythos, then it will be an instant buy for you.
I really like that its smaller than Cthulhu Wars and you can travel with it. Also, that its a cheaper game for people to buy, so more people will be able to enjoy Lovecraftian Horror. This is a legit real Cthulhu Wars experience that will spread the good word.
Cthulhu Wars: Duel gives those non-believers what they’ve been asking for–a small game box and a low price point. Honestly, Petersen Games couldn’t have picked a better time to make this game. In this horrible, crazy year they made their flagship game accessible for all gamers and fans to try out and hopefully enjoy. Plus, they gave us a great new low player count option for quarantine gaming. Well played Petersen Games, well played.
Cthulhu Wars: Duel is a dream for tabletop gamers that wanted to play in the realm of the Elder Gods. Petersen Games has allowed budget conscious gamers to dip their toes into the stygian depths of cosmic horror and reward them with an amazing game at an affordable price that is destined to be a legend in living rooms and game shops. Even the new box fits easily on a book or gaming shelf where it will take a place of honor in some dark hearts! There is so much to enjoy in this game from the amazing artwork to the wonderful strategy and gameplay. So, what better time than the holiday season to bring some unrelenting doom to the gamers that you love in and out of your family with Cthulhu Wars: Duel!
Cthulhu Wars: Duel distils Miskatonic mayhem into a travel-ready, two-player clash. Take up the mantle of the many-tentacled dreamer Cthulhu or the fecund horror that is the Black Goat as you struggle to dominate a world already conquered by beings beyond mortal imagination.
Cthulhu Wars: Duel is a pleasant area control game that stays fresh as it develops, with a fun Lovecraftian theme and fun implementation of the theme. From time to time it’s nice to be the bad guy!
