I spent Friday night playing Munchkin Cthulhu at Collector’s Connection near the Mall.
Jason and Clare and Lisa were Munchkin veterans, while Katherine (age 10), Kate, Rachel and I were newbies. Katherine drew the card to face the Great Cthulhu in the first round and became a cultist.
The choice of game was accidentally very appropriate, as yesterday was H. P. Lovecraft’s birthday.
“HOWARD PHILLIPS LOVECRAFT (20 August 1890-15 March 1937) is probably best known as a writer of weird fiction, but some believe his voluminous correspondence to be his greatest accomplishment.”
It was a great evening, mostly because the rule of the night, for most of the game, was “Keep Rachel from Winning.” We did that, successfully, until the shop closed at 8. Then a few of us went to Bridgeman’s for a cone.

Gaming thrives in Duluth lately. At DragonPort, Warhammer tournaments are running this weekend.
All in all, it’s a good time to game in the Twin Ports.
