The higher challenges get so ridiculously boring, it seems the opponent ALWAYS gets the high damage cards right from the beginning, normally he starts with dark young charge, hound of tindalos, dark ritual or black goat of the woods, only to follow up with the rest of em, while I'm stuck with so useful cards as dawn of a new day or betrayal or the mighty blast em card; the luck factor is just too high, so frustrating

@DRAGONFORCE when you die, you can just press the "load game" button XD took me a while to realize it was there though. So i felt the same way as you in the beginning

if you don't get a badge, SUMBIT A MISSING BADGE REPORT! THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE FOR! DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT IT IN THE COMMENTS! THAT DOES NOTHING FOR YOU!

Challenge 8, tough sh**, really hard to win, it's like my 10th try.
Opponent has 1 life left, I have 14.
Keeping a "blast'em" card to kick his ass on the next turn...
He throws me the hounds of tindalos, damage 14.... Big scream is heard from the rest of the house.
I can't continue playing this, it's going to drive me nuts.

For the Unholy Power Book Badge, it may be buggy. You have to start a new game for it to register. So if you got it, click the start game button, and it should register once you finish the game. It worked for me anyway.

Controling the task at hand seems to be more important than to control your own self if you truly want to face the Old Gods. Alas, we may become a little bit more prepared thanks to this hardcore simulation. Thank you and I wish all of you the best of luck before going insane.

I think if you exercise solid strategy, you mitigate just enough of the luck factor to make this a possible impossible badge. Definitely challenging though.

Damn I hate this game. It's like 3am and I gotta go up tomorow, still playing this game. Make it less addicting... -.-

I always wondered what are the chances for each of the mad experiment effects? Are they equal or is it rather more likely to become insane?

Sweet. After having done challenges 1-7 several years ago, I finally came back to this game and grinded out 8-21 in a single night. This is my first and [currently] only impossible badge on this site.

The effects in Challenge 21 are not random. Here's what I see happening:
1. Any time you heal, enemy is healed same amount.
2. Increasing enemy's Taint increases your taint by same amount.
3. Any card that increases your Arcane Power increases enemy's Arcane INSTEAD of yours.

Some challenges are idiotic. I'd prefer skill instead of replaying a zillion times until finally the right combination pops up.

a couple of hints for the main game: play a slow build up. don't play your big spells until you have at least 5 arcane power. also, save your counter cards: elder thing, dispel, blessing of hastur, and sacrificial lamb. Byakhee is all but useless, Elder Thing should only be played in a pinch, Dimensional Shambler is pretty good, Shoggoth is the best if your opp. has a creature. don't be afraid of insanity, but don't go crazy with your high-cost spells; if you're on the verge, wait a couple of turns for an Arkham Asylum.

(This comment was supposed to be first) I think this is about as badass as a card game can get. It's really the same as almost all other CG's, but the art, music/atmosphere, the little quotes and just being in Lovecraft's world set it apart. Sadly...it comes with the same issue most others suffer from, being luck based..especially since you both have the same cards. But, for what it is, I love it. I have like 3 books filled with all of Lovecraft's stories..I'm digging those out today.

Does the first badge mean to have a negative sanity rate at the end of a regular game? If so then it isn't giving me the badge.

Challenge 16 took me more time than the rest of the challenges combined. I had a long unlucky streak, although I got lucky on 15 and a few others. It took a little bit, but I've had hard badges take longer than the impossible one here.

Warning: This game has at least make 5 players go insane. Any insane players will be send to Arkham Asylum and get owned by the goddamn Batman.

Best card game ever. Started onLevel 21 in challenge mode. "Good Luck"? The Gods have smiled upon me. Beat it on the 1st try. Now watch me die on Level 1.

For those, who are stuck with challenge level 15: I played this level for 1,5 hour, and i found that unless you start with City of R'lyeh or Elder Sign, you won't have a second turn (or Blackmail, then one of these two). With Elder sign i couldn't finish the game, with the city it's possible though. If the insanity causes the computer to play no creatures, it somehow starts playing(discarding) a lot. That was the only way i could stack up enough life to beat it.
