Review: Great RPG - Okay the review is going to cover a few things. 1. Rules are easy to follow and are well written. The system has some parts of it feeling a little same to D&D 5E, but seeing how small the RPG world is at the corporate level I am not shocked. The book walks you through the character creation easy enough. This book is everything you need to start. The investigators handbook just adds to it. 2. The world is great. You should have a slight knowledge of Lovecraft before running this game, but not to play the game. It is a horror RPG, so be prepared to take things slow, but interesting this world is not meant to be a murder hobo setting that can work something, but it is more about figuring things out. I love the setting even if Lovecraft was a bit off himself. 3. The book is clean and easy to follow. I started as the keeper of the lore (DM). Never playing in the game, but it was okay I just read a module the first time. I own this book three time. On Fantasy Grounds, PDF through Drivethrurpg and hard cover I picked up on desertcart. The print is clear and is not cluttered with pictures behind it. The book is hardcover and seems well bound. All in all it is a fun RPG that was well written and easy to run. If you are a fan of Lovecraft then this book is great. If you are just looking for something other than D&D and pathfinder again great choice. Even if I think this and the other two systems are the three most well known. Other RPGs to look at in horror if that would be your thing. 1. Kids on Bikes 2. Vampire the Masquerade/werewolf apocalypse. 3. Dread
Review: BONUS FEATURES INCLUDED! - This product is amazing. I originally bought this item because I was a fan of H.P. Lovecraft and had recently been getting into table top gaming. I was very impressed with the books. The amount of detail and rich art were a very immersive experience and the game was very fun to play with friends. However, the real star factor came with the hidden text inside the book. At first I thought it was coincidence but I soon started to see a pattern in the text. Using my PHD in linguistics and ancient languages and my Masters in cryptography, I was able to extract about 6 pages worth of hidden text that was in a language I had never heard before. After reciting some of the passages I had translated a gateway to another dimension opened up and out came a hideous monstrosity made of slime and tentacle and eyeballs. I was initially horrified and almost passed out from fear but suddenly the creature started to communicate with me telepathically. It put my mind at ease and explained that because I had summoned it that I was it's master and it would obey my every command. So, now I have this trans-dimensional demon to do my bidding. It's nice to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it, am I right? I'm sure I'll use it for like a month and get bored and it will end up in a closet with all my other unused supernatural phenomenon. So far I've used it to find the remote, make me pizza pockets (blowing on them until they are the perfect temperature), and slightly annoy my neighbor by knocking on his door and then becoming invisible, like 5 times a day. It's the funniest thing! He is getting so mad, I honestly think he's going crazy. You know what drives me crazy? When someone returns your lawnmower caked in mud and dog poop and a bent blade. Enjoy your existential crisis! Oh man, I wonder if wielding this power could possibly be dangerous. Nah, I'm sure as long as I keep it small, limit my use and ignore the nagging disembodied voices chanting in a dead language, I'm gonna be just fine. Five stars. Would recomend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All time favorite RPG
*by V***S on October 18, 2017*

As a game master and fan of the previous addition of Call of Cthulhu, I was hesitant to invest in a new edition of this series, unsure of what could be changed or improved on from what seemed like a straightforward and uncomplicated system. Boy was I wrong! This new book makes the game feel much more intense, with the emphasis on the new Chase mechanic which really makes dramatic moments of terror that much more intense, the addition of the optional Luck point system, and having EVERYTHING be percentile based except for damage output. The opening story in the book focuses on "The Dunwich Horror" as the basis on how an HP Lovecraft themed game should be run and paced. Character creation is much more fleshed out, putting an emphasis on the previously unnecessary skill of Credit Rating which now helps determine reasonable income and status, making NPC interactions much more dynamic. This game is not like D&D in that you explore ruins and kills monsters. You can, but Call of Cthulhu is a game of story telling, narrative, and psychological horror in the face of cosmic terrors beyond the mind's comprehension. Investigators (the player characters) are going to go insane or die, as many of the forces pitted against them are, as mentioned before, beyond man's understanding. This makes for grand, frightful, and unpredictable games that can see success or catastrophic failure. If you love horror games, narrative and character driven stories with less emphasis on combat, get this game!
