"Lovercraftian" is a fun typo. I'm imagining developing a casual fwb relationship with Azathoth. Taking Cthulhu for a long walk on the beaches around R'lyeh...

Haha, just noticed this! ๐Ÿ˜…

They (Crazy Goat Games) just c&p and replaced the assets of their own game Republic of Pirates...

where you play the bad guys

So we get to play as HP Lovecraft?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

I mean, I love Lovecraftian stuff, but that dude was a huge racist... Might be deliberate that you can't play as him.

Don't this is possible.

You should drop the developers an email with this idea. :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

Nah, I don't really think I want to play a Nazi simulator. Besides, there's already something akin to that out there. It's Call Of Duty.

Wishlisted and following with great interest.

This is genius! A citybuilder as a lovecraft cultist? How has nobody thought of this before?

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I'm considering buying this next week. Has anyone here tried it yet?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

It's an Anno reskin, but a fairly good one

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

No but it's got a demo for free

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (3 children)

It's a ripoff of Worshippers of Cthulhu, in my opinion. I'm astonished they're releasing both games at practically the same time.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago

How is it compared to Cult of Lamb?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 22 hours ago

So you're saying Worshippers of Cthulu is a ripoff of... Worshippers of Cthulu?

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The title is a typo. The link goes to the page for Worshippers of Cthulhu and that is the game I am asking about.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

It was most definitely a typo.

Although it would be funny if someone tried to release a D-grade game called Worshippers of Cthulhum at the same time.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Honestly it would not surprise me. I had to double check.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, now that you fixed the typo my joke is even less obvious.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

My apologies, at least I sort of got your joke (indirectly). :)
