📖 About This Game

Cults of London is an Asymmetric Deck Builder & Area Control Hybrid set in the Award winning Historical Dark fantasy setting of Historica Arcanum. Set in the Victorian London, players will take on the role of factions vying for the control of the arcane society of the city. Every turn, you will match your operators with actions and locations to send them on missions to gather resources, eliminate enemy opponents, and fulfill victory conditions. Before the missions commence, you and your enemies will have a chance to uncover aspects of each mission. After all, knowledge is power. —description from the publisher
