Question of ending the game in Cthulhu

Moto321 · 04-14-2016, 07:13 AM

Imagine there are 3 players in game. 2 of them are already Cultist. The non-cultist player uses a Cultist Class card in their turn, having the highest level, so they become a Cultist and the game should end.

I know O R'lyeh? can be used to deflect the Cultist Class card and the game does not end, but my question is: after activating the Cultist Class card, can the other players use as many as Level-Up cards they have in hand, or does the game end immediately?

Thanks in advance.

The game ends immediately.

Okey, thank you. That's a pity, though. My friend was lvl 4 and I was 3, having in hand 2 cards of leveling up. I was determined to use both of them as soon as he played the Cultist Class card.

a few years back a couple of friends and I had that same scenario...but our game ended with the two of them at level one and me at level two...both of their faces got super long...perhaps cthulu-ized even :-)
