==Summary==
 
Deep in the corners of letters, the Hounds of Tindalos wait for the unsuspecting in Unspeakable Words, a devious word game that will eat at your sanity!
 
 
 
Use your hand of cards to form words to score, based on the number of angles in the word. Be careful, because every misstep could cost you, since you must test the strength of your mind against each word's point value.
 
 
 
Succeed, and you're safe, for now… Fail, however, and you take one step closer to madness. Can you keep your sanity long enough to win this horrifically fun word game?
 
 
 
==Comments / Trivia==
 
There were originally two editions of ''Unspeakable Words'' (with different covers) before the Kickstarter for ''Unspeakable Words: Deluxe Edition''.
 
 
 
The box refers to it as the Call of Cthulhu word game.
 
 
 
The first edition has green Cthulhu pawns. Then a "Mini Mythos" add-on was produced with black Cthulhu pawns. The second edition has purple Cthulhu pawns.
 
 
 
If a player has two copies of the game, the decks and Cthulhu pawns can be combined to double the number of players. The "Mini Mythos" add-on also increases the possible number of players.
