The jolly fellow in red has been kidnapped by the Christmas League of Evil, and it’s up to eldritch horrors to stop spreading madness and start spreading cheer.
Cthulhu Saves Christmas follows Cthulhu (naturally), the Snow Maiden, Baba Yaga-chan, and Belsnickel as they work to free Santa from the clutches of some unsavory holiday folks. Normally these holiday-themed things are all about teaching about having a giving spirit or learning the true meaning of family or some overly-preachy message, but this one will have you stomping monstrosities in speedy turn-based battles that really cranked up the pace of what I normally expect from the genre.
Not that the family message went entirely out the window. Cthulhu can build up R’lyehtionship Levels (groan) with the other party members by going out on optional outings with them. These will help you all grow a little closer to one another, creating some truly touching moments between the monstrous Cthulhu and his newfound pals. Which is possibly a far more powerful message of companionship than any other sappy Christmas special I’ve ever endured.
Given the game’s goofy premise, it’s a ridiculous romp through some fun holiday situations that make it a blast to play. That it’s also created by the same folks who made Cthulhu Saves the World, a game that did wonderful things for turn-based RPGs in how they handle pacing in combat, it’s also a zippy, involved title that puts all of the characters’ abilities to vital use. Well worth checking out even if the holidays are all done.
Cthulhu Saves Christmas is available now on Steam and GOG.
