Cthulhu Vs. The Vikings

Cthulhu VS The VikingsWe have taken the ancient Viking game, Hnefatafl (or "King's Table"), and re-imagined it as a clash between Viking warriors and the minions of Cthulhu, the Deep Ones.

Hnefatafl is perhaps the best known of the Tafl games played by the Vikings. It is a deep, strategic game with a fundamentally asymmetric design - players start out in different positions on the board, with different numbers of pieces, and with entirely different victory conditions. In many respects, it is unique among the games of antiquity.

Our version of the game begins with a small band of Vikings surrounded on all four sides by slavering Deep Ones. The goal of the Vikings is to escape and the goal of the Deep Ones is to capture the Viking leader.

While we also offer a board game (check us out on Facebook), the digital version pits players against one another in a turn-based battle between Viking Warlord and Tentacled Monster!
