Summary

From the back of the box:

You are one of the Great Old Ones beings of ancient and eldritch power. Cosmic forces have held you at bay for untold aeons, but at last the stars are right and your maniacal cult has called you to this benighted place. Once you regain your full powers, you will unleash your DOOM upon the world! There's only one problem - you're not alone.

The other Great Old Ones are here as well, and your rivals are determined to steal your cultists and snatch victory from your flabby claws! It's a race to the ultimate finish as you crush homes, smash holes in reality, and fight to call down The Doom That Came to Atlantic City!

Comments / Trivia

This game is modeled after the game Monopoly, although they are not officially connected.

This game generated quite a bit of bad publicity after its' successful Kickstarter campain was "cancelled" without producing anything or refunding pledges. After quite a bit of drama, The Doom That Came to Atlantic City was published by Cryptozoic Entertainment, and subsequently Renegade Game Studios. Anyone interested in finding out more should start with the "Links" section and do their research from there.

Not to be confused with other Cthulhu Mythos-themed variations on Monopoly such as Necronomonopoly or Monopoly: Cthulhu.
