Sounds great, will add this to my favorite games, and check back again later on. I really do look forward to the improvements on this. Also, while making the updates, please add in the API for this, would love to see this game get badges as well. :)

I'm giving the sanity/insanity system an overhaul and working out some kinks. Also adding pop up tooltips for the stat icons. Adding a discard option which can increase sanity by the card cost, and making sanity go into minus figures. Possibly going to add much more distructive insanities as you get lower into minus sanity.

The Arcane and Elder sign powers are too great. If you don't get any of these cards until late in the game and your opponent does, you're going to lose (or have a hard time at least). Taint seems balanced, but the insanities don't really matter much. Megalomania is even a game-winner, particularly if you have Blessing of Hastur or another taint-wiping spell.

n/m, disregard my comment about arcane/sanity. I see where Arcane is located now...just not sure how much good either do (sanity or arcane) at this moment...very confusing at times....

Cool game, but has a few bugs, from what I can understand. Such as, when you have a card that adds arcane (ie. +5 arcane, cost is 3, it subtracts 3, but never adds in the 5). Also, the arcane (or sanity as they seem to be used synonymously) doesn't seem to really have a bearing on anything. If you run out, you can continue to use cards that cost "arcane" or "sanity" anyway. 3/5, but with a few tweaks (faster cards, annoyingly slow at times) and bug fixes (mentioned above), could easily be a 4/5 or even a 5/5 game, imo.

Well, i finished it just now, and it was a very different game in the late stages. Its not a matter IF you go insane, the question is how many times. On the other hand there was alot more room for strategy because of the big health pools.
Perhaps tweak agoraphobia to randmnly select 2 cards every turn instead of the first two?. And add some old god with an overpowered deck as final opponent :)

Randomness being a major factor when sanity hits 0 is really crap.
*woo he got the summoned creature one* so what?
taint cards do not actually add taint when they already have it do they? Not sure if thats a bug.

does it make sense i just jumped from Level 2 to 4 after a really good second round, adn i didn't get any new card at all?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Sry, changed my mind:
1- No in-game menu button.
2- No volume control!! C'mon ppl!!!
3/5
Anyways, i think insanity is great! So 4/5

@therealwest - glad you like the game. I'm working on changing the sanity system and making them more crippling to have. Also the scenario you described is actually what I like about the game - unexpected things can happen. But there is usually a way out of it.

Insanity makes it very random, some of them are just so beneficial that i prefer the opponent to stay "sane".
Perhaps add an extra dispel type card to prevent stalemates? I just played a game where both me and the opp had 13+ shield thanks to doppelganger. It finally ended when the opp had played 2x +5arcane followed by hounds :(
But overall its a very enjoyable game

I see what you mean entityrj - making some changes at the moment though. But nothing too groundbreaking at this point.

GrizBe - I'm reporting you for being a complete liar, when already Alazar who is also on newgrounds has confirmed this submission is mine. You can't even spell my username correctly either. Plowking74. I'm disgusted with you.

rather slow - adding an option to speed up or cancel animations would be awesome
but otherwise an interesting concept

I like it....and not just because of my obvious interest in Lovecraftian things. with the improvements mentioned, it should be even better. Nice work.

Chwooly, I'm working on some improvements, including saving each round and possibly a discard option. I'll update it when I'm finished.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Didn't see it in the instructions, Sanity cost is on the cards lower right, But still would like to be able to save on my own.

I messaged the author on Newgrounds and he said that yes, this is really him. So don't be calling it stolen or crap like that. :p
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
oohoooh, it needs a redeal option. so if i dont like any of my cards, i can discard them all and get five new cards... pretty good game tho

I am getting SICK of this - unless you sent me the message I got below, you never sent one, and you're the liar.
"Just wondering - did you upload your Necronomicon game on Kongregate? It's been put up there by somebody, and someone said it was stolen from Newgrounds. I thought I might as well ask you, since I can just PM you on here instead of having to find your email or something. I'm guessing it's actually you though, but if not, just tell me and I'll let them know it's stolen."
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I love the game, I just hope it's not stolen... If it's not then hopefully we can get a badge or two for it... It's an interesting card game..
