Another Octupus Game for your Enjoyment
Long ago, the Grand Octopus, one filled with cosmically divine powers, reigned over the entire world — until an unfortunate combination of circumstances imprisoned it at the bottom of the ocean. Idle under miles of water, it fell asleep dreaming of the day when its time would come once again.
It's the perfect night! As a devoted cultist of the Grand Octopus, you sneak into the celebrated English university to search for the four ingredients necessary to complete the magic ritual that will allow Him to return to this world. But it turns out others have the same idea.
Stealthily gather what you need while keeping an eye on the other cultists and thwarting them when possible. Sometimes clever negotiations are needed. be the first to complete the task and you will be able to invoke the Grand Octopus and earn His Favour.
In each round, players secretly place their cultist and monster tokens on locations, then reveal those locations at the same time. If only one cultist group occupies a location, that cult gains strength — but if two or more cults want the same spot, they must negotiate or both lose cult strength. If, on the other hand, a rival monster occupies the location, the cultist is eliminated. Gulp!
