The usage of Lovecraftian (q.v. H P Lovecraft) references during internet discussion or debate.

It does not indicate loss during internet debate, as does Godwin's Law (q.v.) but it does indicate that the discussion has moved to the point where it is ripe for ongoing mockery
The thread was subtly won with the Arkam Effect when his comment carried overtones of eeriness and alien logic.

The Arkham Effect was in blatant use when she wrote "bugger me, you're Great Cthulhu's grumpy, uglier brother, aren't you?"

The Arkham Effect can include a form of double entendre like "I can tell the from your reasoning that you're a deep one".

The weirdest explanation is the correct one. Opposite of Occam's razor.
Occam's razor says that people used primitive tech and slave labor build the pyramids. Arkham's razor says that Satan called in a favor from space aliens to build them in order to make people disbelieve in Jesus hundreds of years before he was born.

A game by Fantasy Flight which brings nearly every Lovecraftian entity into the small town of Arkham. About as close to DnD as you can get without playing DnD. It circulates around 1-8 players versus a myraid of monsters until the Great Old One appears, ranging from Azathoth to Yig.
"Hey, after this we can go to my place and play some Arkham Horror."
"Ok, but lets not fight Azathoth."

Nothing short of a MASTERPIECE. EASILY ONE OF THE GREATEST SUPERHERO VIDEOGAMES OF ALL TIME

Rocksteady did a good job with this one, a perfect sequel, can’t say the same about many games like that but oof, even Arkham knight despite being brilliant barely measures up
Batman arkham city is superior to Batman Arkham knight IN TERMS OF STORY, and gameplay even though Batman Arkham knight IS STILL INCREDible

if you’ve never played Batman Arkham city YOU ARE DOING YOURSELF A HUGE DISSERVICE!!! GO NOW AND PLAY IT !!!!!!

anytime marvel wants to compete with gaming, (spiderman ps4 is great DONT get me wrong) remember who laid the foundation for high quality superhero gaming; the Batman Arkham games

Preferably “batman arkham city

Batman Arkham City, a modern day PlayStation masterpiece

Batman arkham city is how video games SHOULD BE MADE, it’s the gold standard that set example after example for superhero games and sequels in general
