Cthulhu Saves the World heading to iOS, Android

5 January 2012

The quirky and, frankly, hilarious indie RPG featuring the tentacled Elder God of H.P. Lovecraftian fame, is heading over to the Apple and Android stores in the coming weeks.

No exact date has been given yet, but “early this year” means soon.

Cthulhu Saves the World sees our lovable bringer of eternal darkness waking up from his slumber, only to discover that his powers have been sealed away – and the only way to get them back is to, ironically, become a true hero.

The game was met with huge success on the indie scene in 2010, making even bigger waves with its Steam release last year – of course, if you’d prefer to stick to the Xbox LIVE Arcade version of the game, then here’s some good news: it’s been discounted from the already low 240 Microsoft Points to a measly 80 points.

So really, there’s no excuse not to get in on this.

Presumably, the version of the game you’ll be getting is the updated and completely real – Cthulhu Saves the World: Super Hyper Enhanced Championship Edition Alpha Diamond DX Plus Alpha FES HD – Premium Enhanced Game of the Year Collector’s Edition (without Avatars!).

Oh yes.

As always, it’s doubtful this will turn up in the SA iTunes store, so don’t even bother looking out for it over there.
