Cthulhu: Death May Die takes a more action-oriented approach to Lovecraftian board gaming than most of its peers, and the combination of scenario variety, Elder God diversity, and investigator abilities creates a replayability engine that keeps the game fresh across dozens of plays. The dice-chucking combat is satisfying and fast, and the insanity system elegantly ties mechanical power to narrative risk. Cramped map tiles and fiddly damage tracking are real annoyances that the design never fully solves. But for groups that want their cosmic horror with more punching and less puzzle-solving, this hits the mark.
