Call of Cthulhu Roleplaying Game

Players assume investigators in a 1920s and later setting who pursue occult mysteries, forbidden tomes, and incomprehensible entities rooted in cosmic horror. Gameplay focuses on gathering clues, making skill checks, and using resources to solve cases while managing sanity and the physical risks of confronting otherworldly threats. Combat is deadly and often avoided; roleplaying, deduction, and atmospheric investigation drive play. The rules use a d20-based resolution system and include character creation, sanity mechanics, and guidance for creating scenarios and monstrous antagonists.
