Description

--- "Barkham Horror: The Meddling of Meowlathotep is a 78-card standalone scenario pack parodying Arkham Horror, pitting dog investigators against cat-themed eldritch horrors in a canine-feline conflict." Key mechanics include: - *Thematic reskinning* Alternate universe swaps humanity-Mythos conflict for dogs versus cats and eldritch felines. - *Scenario objective* Investigators as pups stop Meowlathotep, the Prowling Chaos and Meowsenger of Outer Feline Gods. - *Minion combat* Defeat various Meowsks to prevent destruction of Barkham and the world. - *Investigation narrative* Track cat conspiracy with unnatural cats prowling streets and missing pigeons. - *Exploration focus* Investigate Arkham areas plagued by sightings to root out cat-monsters. Barkham Horror reimagines its universe by centering the conflict on dogs versus cats rather than humanity against Mythos eldritch forces. The Meddling of Meowlathotep, a 78-card standalone scenario pack for Barkham Horror: The Card Game, tasks investigators—depicted as precious pups—with halting Meowlathotep, the Prowling Chaos and Meowsenger of the Outer Feline Gods, who terrorizes Barkham. The adventure begins with pursuing a cat conspiracy: reports of strange, unnatural cats and disappearing pigeons. Players investigate Arkham's most affected areas, rooting out dwelling cat-monsters, sinking teeth into the truth despite challenges like wet fur, to defeat Meowlathotep's Meowsks and avert global catastrophe. ---
