Score the Free Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition Quickstart

Oct 4, 2024

Pelgrane Press is now offering a free quickstart for the upcoming Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition. The crowdfunding project begins this month but you can dip your toes in to see what this new edition has in store. You can grab the 23 page PDF simply by following the project on BacketKit.

About the game:

First launched in 2008, Trail of Cthulhu pits the investigative GUMSHOE rules against the unknowable and horrific mysteries of the Cthulhu Mythos. The Second Edition is wholly compatible with the original edition and its wealth of award-winning supplements: The Armitage Files, Bookhounds of London, Eternal Lies, Dreamhounds of Paris and many more.

Whether you’re running through a classic adventure or building a new world of terror together, you can play in your choice of styles, each supported by specific rules and tailored advice. The Purist style drives you toward stories of philosophical horror and cosmic dread in Lovecraft’s starkest style, while the Pulp style offers the lurid, desperate action feel of Robert E. Howard and Indiana Jones.
