184/365: Arkham Horror.
It was probably one of the hottest days of the year. But the five of us were like: “Fuck it! We play a board game inside!”. And at least there was a fan. Because outside wasn’t any cooler on this Friday night.
We decided to play – and “learn”, as was the case for three of us – Arkham Horror: an adventure role-play game in which you team up as a group of investigators to fight alien monsters that invade the town Arkham through gates from other worlds. All very Lovecraft-ian.
And monsters were fought, parallel worlds were entered, survived and returned from, gates were being closed, and magic spells were being cast. And I think we weren’t that bad at all. But in the end, it was all of no avail: the Ancient One – in this case: Cthulhu – devoured all of us.
