This post is definitely an homage to H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos and to Cthulhu Game Day, celebrated on the author's day of birth, August 20th. So, my suggestion for this day is Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu. Yes, it is a retheming of original Pandemic; yes, it is using the Cthulhu Mythos, like so many other games have. Yet, it does so with exceptional dexterity.
What should i read with this?These last few years, Cthulhu Mythos has become very popular, and new people are constantly introduced to this genre through literature, video or board games. Necronomicon: The Manuscript of the Dead is a book set in the 10th century AD, during the time when professor Theodorus Philetas, according to the lovecraftian tales, translated Alhazed's Necronomicon in Greek. Antonis Antoniades has written a fictional, yet historically accurate, story which encapsulates all the horror of the otherworldly creatures and the terrifying possibilities of resurrection.
