About the game:
The Legacy of Cthulhu is a Role-Playing Game that lets players act as one of the few Survivors of the apocalypse brought to Earth by the Great Old Ones and their minions. The game’s main goal is survival, hiding in Shelters and waiting for the best windows of opportunity to go on supply runs.
Food, medicine, weapons, and gear are the essential tools to resist the dooming future ahead, filled with regular folk possessed by pure desperation and madness, scheming cultists, shadowy priests, and the most dangerous Enemies of all: the perverse spawns of Cthulhu and other Great Old Ones, powerful enough to shatter someone’s mind just with their presence.
You can play The Legacy of Cthulhu in Solo and Co-Op modes by using a robust system that includes an oracle, multiple tables, and other rules that will generate answers to every question, path, and cliffhanger you create in your story, that can lead to more than 20,000 narrative branches.
You can also play as a traditional RPG, with a player as a narrator or a Game Master, making choices and enemy rolls for the group.
