Those who enjoyed Kitfox Games’ The Shrouded Isle, and are looking for more cult management games that veer further into Cthulhu mythos, then Studio Black Flag has just the thing for you. Click of Cthulhu, which you can check out on its itch.io page, is perfect for those cult leaders in training, or for those who are looking to kill a few minutes when waiting for your coworker to respond to an email.

Click of Cthulhu is an idle game, where you click on a resource to acquire it, again and again and again, before eventually automating the process via upgrades. That would be pretty boring on its own, so thankfully, the game also has a city-building element. In order to utilise and acquire more Deep Ones (aka the demonic population of your town), you have to expand your realm by building roads and houses, before constructing mines and other structures for them to labour in. Ultimately, the goal of the game is to build a magic key to unlock the Gates of R’lyeh and summon Cthulhu.

Again, it’s not a deep game, and is meant to be a time killer, but Click of Cthulhu does offer you a chance to indulge your Lovecraftian tendencies while at work. Plus, it’s free and plays in your browser.
