Cthulhu comes to Victorian London with Nanty Narking: Rise of the Cthulhu

Nanty Narking is adding more insanity into its mix with the new expansion Rise of the Cthulhu:

The fog-laden streets of Victorian London are about to descend into unparalleled madness with the unveiling of Nanty Narking: Rise of the Cthulhu, a thrilling new expansion to the acclaimed board game Nanty Narking by legendary designer Martin Wallace. Prepare for a journey into darkness, as players assume the roles of Great Old Ones and vie for dominance in a world teetering on the brink of insanity.

A veil of darkness has shrouded the city, and the natural order is crumbling. From the unrelenting mist, the Great Old Ones emerge with sinister intentions, each seeking to reshape London in their own horrifying image. As madness takes hold, players will summon lesser gods, unleash devastating powers, and battle for supremacy in a game of bluffing, city-building, and deduction.

Expansion Highlights:

Transform Into a Great Old One: Assume the role of a Great Old One with your own malevolent goal, plotting to bend London to your will.
Take Control of the Old Ones: Command these powerful “agents” with special abilities, eager to sow destruction and nearly impossible to eliminate.
Exciting New Mechanics: Wield Insanity to escalate chaos, use Summon to command lesser entities, and watch the madness unfold.
Stunning New Components: Old Ones’ giant miniatures bring a tangible sense of dread to the game table.
High-Stakes Gameplay: Beware of the Doomsday track — if filled, all players face defeat.

The expansion builds on Nanty Narking’s beloved mechanics, introducing innovative twists that heighten the game’s strategic depth. With gameplay for 2-4 players, sessions lasting 60+ minutes, and recommended for ages 14 and up, Rise of the Cthulhu is perfect for board game enthusiasts seeking a blend of strategy, suspense, and supernatural intrigue.
