About the game:
You’re a student, it’s the 90s, you live in Innsmouth, and something dark and terrifying is about to take your life by storm. As if adolescence wasn’t bad enough, now you’ll have to deal with the supernatural of cosmic horror on a stage lit by the bright, fluorescent colors of the Nineties. What a mix! High School Cthulhu draws its inspiration from the teen drama series of the 90s—from Beverly Hills 90210 and Dawson’s Creek to the action & horror classics of the genre like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Roswell.
In the High School Cthulhu handbook, you will find everything you need to play, from how to create your student, to information about our beloved 1990s Innsmouth, its people, and attractions.
High School Cthulhu is powered by a highly cinematic game engine called Director’s Cut. The system uses small pools of six-sided dice to determine the outcome of anything that involves a risk or a danger. When rolling dice, you’re not looking to roll high or low, but to group as many matching symbols together.
