Prepare for an encounter with the most sanity-blasting entities in all the dimensions ...

Chez Cthulhu brings the horror of Lovecraft's Mythos right into your apartment . . . as if the leftovers from the Pizza with Absolutely Everything weren't bad enough. Work your job — will you be a Morgue Janitor, a Sanitarium Guard, or a Gravedigger? Buy things to give you Slack, like a comforting Straitjacket ... or some Friendly Tentacles to make your day a little brighter. Invite people over to your room ... and sacrifice them! And Nookie ... don't forget the Nookie. Preferably without the Ectoplasmic Slime.

Chez Cthulhu is a new stand-alone game that combines the classic Chez Geek system with everyone's favorite Elder God, and adds a new Madness mechanic. This set includes 110 cards and two blanks, a die, and counters for both Slack and Madness.
