All you need to enjoy Horror Roleplaying!

A World of Mystery, Horror and Adventure in a Box!

This Starter Box contains everything you need to start playing Call of Cthulhu—the tabletop roleplaying game of mystery and horror.

Players take on the role of investigators of mysteries, uncovering dark secrets, encountering strange monsters, and thwarting sinister cults. Together, you and your friends create and develop a story in which each of your characters plays a leading role, which could be foiling some dastardly plot or stopping horrors from beyond space and time!

Roleplaying gaming is a social pastime. Everyone works together in a team, each playing an investigator character. One player runs the game—the Keeper of Arcane Lore—who referees the game and presents the story and adventure plots to the other players. Think of it a bit like acting in a drama, but where there isn’t a script. Dice and the rules of the game determine the success or failure for your character’s actions—all while you are propelled into dramatic and nerve-tingling situations! The emphasis is on having fun.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a rulebook?

A rulebook is a core guidebook that outlines the game's rules, mechanics, setting information, and character creation guidelines. It serves as the primary reference for players and game masters (GMs) to understand how to play the game and resolve gameplay interactions.

How do rulebooks enhance the experience?

Rulebooks enhance the experience by providing structure, consistency, and depth to gameplay sessions. They establish the game's universe, define character abilities and limitations, and offer guidelines for storytelling and role-playing. Rulebooks also encourage creativity and strategic thinking among players.

What types of rulebooks are available?

Rulebooks vary based on the game system and genre. They can include core rulebooks that cover basic gameplay mechanics and setting details, supplemental rulebooks that introduce new rules or expand on specific aspects of the game, and adventure modules that provide pre-written scenarios for GMs and players.

Where can I buy rulebooks?

You can buy rulebooks for TTRPGs here and for miniature games here.

How do I choose the right rulebook?

Choosing the right rulebook depends on several factors such as your preferred game genre (fantasy, sci-fi, horror, etc.), complexity level, and storytelling style. Consider reading reviews, exploring sample pages, and discussing with fellow players to determine if the rulebook aligns with your gaming preferences and group dynamics.

Can rulebooks for different systems be used together?

Rulebooks for different systems are generally designed to be used independently due to variations in rules, settings, and gameplay mechanics. However, experienced game masters may adapt elements from one system to another with careful consideration and adjustments to maintain game balance and narrative coherence.
