Rules & Dice

Three softcover manuals broken into rules and scenarios to guide you in playing Call of Cthulhu. The box also includes all the dice you need to play the game: a D4, D6, D8, D20, Percentile D10, and an extra D10 in a different colour for use as a bonus/penalty die.

Solo Scenario

Learn to play in the best way possible—by playing! The special introduction “Alone Against The Flames”, a solo Call of Cthulhu scenario, teaches you the basic rules of the game and character creation as you find yourself in the rural New England town of Emberhead—but can you escape?

Scenarios

Three scenarios designed for 3, 4 and up to 5 players.

• In Paper Chase, the search for a missing professor leads to a grizzly discovery.
• Edge of Darkness sees a group of investigators fulfil the wish of a dying friend, and attempt to undo the mistakes of the past.
• Finally, in Dead Man Stomp, Harlem and jazz music serve as a backdrop to the nefarious schemes of an alien god.

Maps & Handouts

Player aids are an essential component to Call of Cthulhu gameplay. Each scenario has its own collection of maps, notes and player handouts. Each presented in full colour, these play aids will enhance your gameplay, and help your players immerse themselves in each of the investigations.
