Summary
From the back of the box:
The legendary Furiously Fuggly card game is back!
Pit your Cthulhu cult against the competition in a bloodthirsty battle of guns, spells, monsters, and the fearsome Big Honkin' Truck! Blast away at the enemy cultists, toment them with sinister magics, or summon monsters to do your bidding -- even Great Cthulhu himself. When the stars come right, you can prove who is the most nefarious cult of all.
Designed by Jeff Barber and John Tynes, Creatures & Cultists has been out of print for years. Its fame as one of the gooniest, most squamous and batrachian beer-and-pretzels card games ever produced has only grown while it was not dead but dreaming. Now it's back, better than ever with art by John Kovalic!
Comments / Trivia
A note about editions: this game first appeared in The Unspeakable Oath, Issue 04 in 1991. It was re-released in 1992 as a standalone game at GenCon/Origins '92 and only available directly from the publisher. A second re-release in 1993 added cards, re-wrote the rules, and was made available to retailers. Finally, it was released again in 2004 by a different publisher with new art and probably other changes as well. Here at CthulhuWiki, we're considering each of these releases a separate edition of the game, but that may not match what you read elsewhere.
Not to be confused with Cultists & Cthulhu, an unrelated game.
