This is a really cute and fun game!
I was looking for something for a Christmas themed stream, and you'd be surprised (Or maybe not) at the lack of Christmas themed games (Excluding games with Christmas updates). I have never played Cthulhu Saves the World, but it's been in my library for a while and always was described as something fun and humorous, so I gave this one a try.
The dialogue is definitely the star of the show here! It's absolutely perfect and hilarious, I loved it so much that I've considered going back and redoing some things to make sure I can read it all!
The game is split into three different things;
1. Christmas Town. Here, you pick who you're going to talk to/what you're going to do, this builds your "Ry'lehtionships" and gives you an item. You can't talk with everyone in one playthrough, so pick carefully, especially if you want the achievement for forming a full Ry'lehtionship!
2. Dungeon. You go through dungeons, which are all mazes, and make your way to the boss. You can find chests with new items in them, and of course, you can trigger battles.
3. Battle. When a bar fills up in a dungeon, you enter a battle, which can be avoided (Thankfully, since I got annoyed with them towards the end), you play in a typical turn-based thing where you use a variety of abilities and whatnot to defeat your enemies. It was not my style of game at all, however, the enemy design and simple fightplay made it enjoyable! It was really only the last dungeon or two I got tired of fighting and wanted to make it to the end, but that can also be blamed on me streaming and wanting to be done, but feeling too stubborn to stop so close to the end!

All in all, super fun, short (5 hours for me), great dialogue, unique and interesting enemy design, and just fun. I could see myself giving out keys to this next Christmas, and I'm really excited to try out Cthulhu Saves the World!

Seriously, it's a treat. Do yourself a favor and grab it!
