Call of Cthulhu word game [game]

Game includes: 97 letter cards, 1 twenty-sided die, 30 Cthulhu pawns and 1 set of instructions.

Programming use only.

"Decode the ancient secrets of R'lyeh by forming words with the letters you find in this sanity-sapping letter game. The more angles that appear in the words, the greater their mystical value, but beware! For each word that is created, you must roll a sanity check against its value to see if the word's power drives you mad! Cthulhu Mythos themed."--From publisher.

"In Unspeakable WordsTM, based on the literary works of H.P. Lovecraft, use your hand of cards to form words to score, determined by the number of angles in the letters. But you must be careful, because every misstep could cost you, since you must test the strength of your mind against each word’s point value by rolling a 20-sided die. 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?"

Ages 10+, 2-6 players.
