Based off the story by H.P. Lovecraft, The Cats of Ulthar is a two player card game. Each player attempts to surround their spellcaster card with three cats in matching order, while at the same time, attempting to attack the other player's cats with magic spell cards. Once each player gets a turn, then the villains of the game or, the "Cotter + Wife" get a turn as well! These cards will attack cats from either opponent.

If your opponent attacks you with a deadly spell card and you can't deflect it with a magic card, then your cat is killed. However, that means your opponent has summoned the wrath of the "Ancient Elder Gods" and must pull a card from their deck, then follow what the card says. This is never good.

Once your spellcaster is completely surrounded on three sides with the proper cat cards, thrown down a "Kill" card on the "Cotter + Wife" card to win the game! Keep up to date at www.gilgamesh.games
