Coin Horror is an abstract microgame for 2 players set in Myths of Cthulhu. Players must solve a case in the town of Arkham, and prevent at all costs the plans of the evil cultists.

To play you only need one board -from size of a coasters-, and a handful of coins.

In turn, players place coins on the board to score better than your opponent, while trying not to lose all the Stamina and Sanity. The game ends if any of these cases occurs:

The fourth coin of Doom is placed.
The two players can not put more coins or decide not to.
Both players are eliminated.

The player with more Clue (Victory Points) wins the game.
