What's On This Page (And What's Not)

These are Cthulhu Mythos-themed board games.

More specifically ...

Mythos-Themed: This category includes board games and board game expansions featuring the Cthulhu Mythos. This category does not include board games that contain a mention of the Cthulhu Mythos but are not generally Mythos-themed. (Yes, Illuminati has "The Servants of Cthulhu." No, that doesn't make it a Mythos-themed game.)

Board Games: This category is not strictly limited to games that use boards, but also includes games that use any combination of boards, cards, dice, tiles, figures, rulebooks, and other miscellanea. (But not Role-Playing Games or Collectible and Living Card Games.) There aren't pages for every little promo card or Kickstarter bonus, although those items may be mentioned on the game's page.
