Christmas time is saved!
There's nothing really wrong with Cthulhu saves Christmas, but there's nothing spectacular either. The characters are fun, there's a good blend of humor and action, but it's a very short game with very repetitive battles. The battle system seems interesting at a glance, but it's just fluff you're most likely never going to need. In the end, my dealbreaker for not recommending it is the pricing: game is not priced appropriately for what it offers.
Review from 2020: Cute prequel to Cthulhu Saves The World. Xmas themed sort of but was still funny, the combat was super simple and easy which is kind of sad because the use an ability and then its lost unless you skip a turn was a cool way to force you to try different play styles

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I'm going to give this a recommendation. It's super easy and super short but it was super cute. A simple Christmas RPG. I'm a sucker for holiday games and this was the perfect single day game. Get it cheap and enjoy!
Very funny game that is perfect to play around the holidays. My biggest complaint is the lack in variatio in music and the long battles towards the end when enemies have tons of health. One thing I really like is there are only a limited amount of random battles in areas eliminating a lot of the monotony of other jrpgs.
A short, festive, and absolutely unserious JRPG. If you enjoy goofy 4th wall-breaking humor and want it packaged with a unique take on turn-based battle systems, you won't be disappointed with this! Full video review: https://youtu.be/woqI_1lTVG8
I knew I'd love it.
This game made my night.. the dialogue lines are HILARIOUS, and Cthulhu is adorable haha. I kinda want to play it again just to take screenshots of some great lines I missed, lol. You can finish it in one sitting, plus you can focus on the story or do a more challenging run by increasing the difficulty, which you can adjust at any point in the game. Next time, we save the world!
Honestly from Breath of Death to Cthulu Saves the World I was having a good old fashioned romp, and now this? This is the perfect treat for Xmas. I bought this back in June (and no, not in a penny for a billion games! I bought it outright!) and I saved it for Xmas before I forgot about it, saved it in a nice little file for my games over Xmas Period and i'm so glad I did, what a wild ride. I've loved it and I need more from this amazing dev! The Dark Comedy, the Christmas Cheer, the twists and the turns? WONDERFUL.
Good game. Pretty fun fun. It plays kind of like Pokemon, looks good for a 2D RPG, and Cthulhu saving Christmas is exactly as charming as it sounds with a unique twist. There are cat ears in this game. I saw them in the item list and my heart soared. I thought: finally. Cthulhu, ancient eldritch abomination, wearing little cat ears on his 2D sprite. That's the content I'm here for. Turns out, they're a battle item. You use them to charm an enemy. That's it. They don't break, they are just a constant reminder of pure sadness. The developers hand-drew a whole game and not one frame of Cthulhu in cat ears exists anywhere in it. I'm not angry. Just disappointed ;( Still, good game. Would recommend.
