Description

The arrival of the Old Ones is near, we already feel their presence in the air, on the ground in every corner. In Chants for the Old Ones, we will be cultists infiltrating the cities of Arkham, Innsmouth, and Kingsport performing sacrifices, recruiting cultists and summoning creatures to invoke the Old Ones under the watchful eye of seasoned researchers who will try to prevent it. Build the first cult to summon an Old One and start the new era of glory. Chants for the Old Ones is a thematic strategy game where your objective is to summon an Old One before any other player. All players will start with the same basic cultists. However, Each Old One has distinct requirements in their invocation chants. The way you build (or deconstruct) your deck will depend entirely on your strategy and objective. The first player to summon an Old One, wins.
