A WORLD OF MYSTERY, HORROR, AND ADVENTURE IN A BOX!<\/p>\n
This Starter Box contains everything you need to start playing Call of Cthulhu\u2014the tabletop roleplaying game of mystery and horror.<\/p>\n
Players take on the role of investigators of mysteries, uncovering dark secrets, encountering strange monsters, and thwarting sinister cults. Together, you and your friends create and develop a story in which each of your characters plays a leading role, which could be foiling some dastardly plot or stopping horrors from beyond space and time!<\/p>\n
Roleplaying gaming is a social pastime. Everyone works together in a team, each playing an investigator character. One player runs the game\u2014the Keeper of Arcane Lore\u2014who referees the game and presents the adventure plots to the other players. Think of it a bit like acting in a drama, but where there isn\u2019t a script. Dice and the rules of the game determine the success or failure for your character\u2019s actions\u2014all while you are propelled into dramatic and nerve-tingling situations! The emphasis is on having fun.<\/p>\n
