FtS! featured as part of Gamescape North’s Gotta Play

I wish i’d known about this before…apparently, Feed the Shoggoth! was one of the featured games in Gamescape North’s Gotta Play line up. It just happened April 30th, and i found out about it…well, just now. Otherwise, i’d be telling you to head over to Gamescape North (if you’re in the area, of course), and give it a try!

Drat.

Still, i’m very honored for FtS! to have been selected. And they also just posted a really nice review of the game here:

Review: Feed the Shoggoth

In addition, i’ve heard tell that FtS! will get a mention in a certain newsletter put out by a certain company…name rhymes with “Dayosium”, i think…

Hellnotes posts a review of Feed the Shoggoth!

Hot on the heels of a positive review from Fathergeek.com, we’ve got another review from Hellnotes.com. This review is particularly notable, as it’s written by Brian Sammons, a veteran Lovecraft fiction author, as well as the creator of many Call of Cthulhu scenarios. In summing up, Brian had this to say about the game:

 If you are a fan of H.P. Lovecraft’s stories and the works of the wider Cthulhu Mythos and like fun and games, this game is a must have. If you have no idea who the hell Lovecraft is and have never read any of this tales but still want to play a fast and fun card game, this is a must have. So yeah, it’s pretty much a must have. Get it, and don’t forget to keep that shoggoth well fed.

Reviews are coming in!

We just got this great review from Father Geek, which was rated Gamer Geek Approved!

Feed the Shoggoth! has so many twists and turns, amazing comebacks and spectacular downfalls that the game often feels like a dark satirical soap opera rather than a card game. It all comes down to the way players interact with each other. Everything is geared to do one of two things: get eaten or get someone else eaten. The entire time I was playing it I kept thinking, “If Mel Brooks ever made a movie based on H.P. Lovecraft, this would be it.” Dark slapstick disparaging humor at its finest.

Slowly building out

It’s taking a while, but the site is slowly getting built. I’ve added a new page that shows you how you can get your own copy of the game, including a listing of all the stores that it’s available in.

Meanwhile, the FAQ is getting added. If you have rules questions to add, please send them to badger@squamousstudios.com. Thanks!
