The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has a new Call of Cthulhu scenario out, with a ridiculously large box of props to use with it!

If it's anywhere near as fun as The Dog Walker scenario for their Arkham Investigator's Wallet Prop Set, this should be pretty great!

Very cool to see all the Call of Cthulhu books that are getting translated into Ukrainian by Geekach Games. Круто зварені ігри!

🕴🙃 У день народження великого й жахливого Лавкрафта згадаймо, які матеріали в лінійці гри «Поклик Ктулху» доступні українською вже зараз, і над чим ми працюємо далі!

😱 «Швидкий старт», призначений для першого знайомства з грою, містить стислий огляд правил і вступну пригоду «Привиддя».

🐙 «Базовий набір» включає чотири класичні пригоди, основні правила, набір багатогранних кісток і наочні матеріали до пригод.

🕵️‍♀️ «Набір Вартового» містить зручну ширму майстра, розкішні кольорові мапи та дві пригоди.

🐀 «Шкряб-шкряб» містить сценарій пригоди на одну-дві сесії, події якої розгортаються в сучасності.

🌊 Зараз тривають останні дні передзамовлення на книгу правил, довідник і біблію Некрономікон для майстра гри «Дороговказ Вартового».

🚪 Також чекаємо на книгу «Двері в морок», яка містить п’ять культових пригод для новачків, а електронний формат вже доступний.

🧟 А наступними стануть «Ворота терору» (Gateways to Terror) — три захопливі короткі пригоди — три портали до справжніх кошмарів!
