Call of Cthulhu RPG: 7th Edition Starter Set

Horror, mystery, and investigation in a box! The Call of Cthulhu Starter Set contains books, dice, premade character sheets, maps, and enough content for several roleplaying sessions.

What Is Roleplaying?

Everyone works together, each playing an investigator character. One player becomes the Keeper of Arcane Lore, who referees the game and presents the story and adventure plots.

Dice and rules determine whether your character’s actions succeed or fail as you face dramatic, nerve-tingling situations. The emphasis is on having fun.

Rules and Dice

Learn with a Solo Scenario

Alone Against the Flames teaches the basic rules and character creation through play. Find yourself in the rural New England town of Emberhead, but can you escape?
