Reign of Cthulhu is built on the patent pendingWarePlai AR gaming platform, by accessing clothing, artifacts, and real-world locations to bring people together and help revolutionize AR and mobile app game play to build communities.
STORY
Thousands of years ago, an armistice was signed and the war between the “Deep Ones”, Cthulhu and Soggoth ended. R’ylah, the battleground where so much glory was won, but so many lives lost, was buried and sunken in order to spare the world from the artifacts, the monsters, and the weapons left over from the trauma of war.
Today, parts of the sunken city are reappearing in our world, and the “Deep Ones” and their armies are threatening humanity once again. Players must choose to fight in one of three armies; to help, fight, or perhaps even exploit these new powers and the rise of the sunken city of R’ylah.
BACKGROUND
The Reign of Cthulhu mythos is a shared fictional universe based on the work of 1920’s American sci-fi/horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. Reign of Cthulhu builds on Lovecraft’s vast body of work creating a new world, new characters and a new storyline rooted in a rich, well established universe that is filled with suspense and horror.
GAMEPLAY
In Reign of Cthulhu, players team together in cooperative Boss Battles or fight each other head-to-head in a turn-based strategy game. Territory is won by laying down portals that summon creatures, minions, and ancient heroes – all in the effort to reign supreme. All of this happening in AR.
Multiplayer combat arenas open up between each player. The real world transforms into an augmented reality battlefield as big as your room or as small as your kitchen table, placing you in the middle of the action.
