“The new ‘Reanimator’ series is really two interwoven stories. The first involves his need to acquire resources (bodies, equipment, chemicals, etc.), and the extremely dangerous way he does so: by supplying zombie brain fluid as a narcotic to a drug cartel — much to the chagrin of their powerful rivals. So Herbert West inevitably becomes the linchpin in a New Orleans power struggle, and – even though he has renounced supernatural power himself – it seems that both of the criminal organizations are aligned with sinister forces of the occult variety (i.e. Elder Gods and Louisiana Voodoo). So there’s some Science vs. Magic at play.” —Keith Davidsen

“H.P. Lovecraft is one of the most impactful writers of the 20th century, an influence on such comic book luminaries as Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Mike Mignola, so giving Herbert West – one of his most beloved characters – a well-deserved spotlight in an all-new series just feels right.”

Elders of Madness is an awesome project from the San Juan Bosco de Torrejón de Ardoz school, in Madrid, Spain. It’s a free videogame (download) created in seven months by a team of 120 guys from secondary education:
“We have seen how mathematics, geometry and algebra are important to make a video game. Never imagined we would love it that much to be all wrapped in the same and huge project. And best of all, we have managed to have something very special, something that will stay forever, this is not an exercise in a page of a notebook, a technical drawing sheet or an essay, it is something that people can enjoy worldwide, a videogame that has been really hard to do but which has made us very.”
It’s a really amazing project about education, learning, design, team work, fantasy and, of course, cosmic horror. Read more about the project and download the game for free (Windows).
The new year comes with a lot of new lovecraftian stuff to enjoy! There are at least 6 interesting projects in Kickstarter: three about games and three about music.
Take a closer look to these games: Rise of Cthulhu – A Card Game of Influence and Horror (“a strategic card game of influence and horror”), Unspeakable Words Deluxe Edition (“the Call of Cthulhu Word Game”) and Shadows of Esteren (“a medieval role-playing game somewhere between Ravenloft, Game of Thrones and Call of Cthulhu”).
And you should also visit these ones, about music: Darkraven Soundscapes (“music and soundscapes for horror RPG and boardgames), Anthropia (“new album based on Cthulhu Mythos” and lovely art for the cover) and Hideous Monolith (“improvised sci-fi jazz record that serves as an audio/visual companion to HP Lovecraft’s Cthulhu mythos”).
But there’s more to come! Don’t miss this game from Spain: Wake up Cthulhu! And come back soon to this site, here at The Cthulhu Project we are also working in new Cthulhu games!
