YOUR ADVENTURE STARTS WHEN THE WORLD ENDS

THE LEGACY OF CTHULHU

The Great Old Ones brought the fall of civilization. Now, you (alone or with a group) must survive the horrors and hardships of a decayed land and, with some luck, find a way to bring hope to humankind.

As the pandemic hit in 2020 and social distancing prevented most of us from getting out of home, gaming habits also changed. While virtual tabletop environments and many communication apps made RPG sessions still possible, Solo RPGs became more important than ever.The Legacy of Cthulhu came to fill in this need with a robust collection of tables, tiles, and enemies to help players navigate through different exciting stories without the need for a group or a traditional DM/Narrator role -- while still being versatile enough to be played in groups, with or without a narrator, if circumstances allow.

Set in an apocalyptic world after the awakening of the Great Old Ones from Lovecraft's lore,The Legacy of Cthulhu puts players on a journey to survive in a setting where our society collapsed, sanity became a rare commodity, and hope is the only thing keeping humanity alive.

The Legacy of Cthulhu (Collector's Edition) - Mind's Vision

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.

This is an introductory adventure for The Legacy of Cthulhu, 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.

A Place to Call Home is a small demonstration of what the game offers and puts the player in the role of a Survivor who just barely dodged death by escaping an attack from the hordes of Cthulhu. With their Shelter destroyed, the Survivor leads a group of refugees to a small town in the middle of nowhere. Surviving in this post-apocalyptic scenario is almost impossible. Still, the group must do whatever it takes to find a new refuge to tender their wounds and, with a little bit of luck and a lot more of faith, find a way to thrive in such a doomed world

This game is absolutely phenomenal. It is kind of like if you took Ironsworn and The Drifter, you placed it in the Call of Cthulhu universe, and then you smashed that together with The Walking Dead.
