We are going to tell a story together. The story of a lone individual stumbling upon clues to a terrible evil. At first they dismiss it, but piece by piece a picture emerges, until suddenly it becomes impossible to deny. They plunge into shadow, they recoil in horror, but it is already too late. The horrifying truth is laid bare and they are consumed by darkness.
Lovecraftesque is a GMless tabletop game that creates a compelling cosmic horror tale in a single session of play.
2-5 players each share control of a single character who is the witness to the terrible horror you will create, and each contribute to the horror itself.
Lovecraftesque has exciting scenarios by authors like Ken Hite (The Dracula Dossier), Jonathan Sims (The Magnus Archives) and Lynne Hardy (Call Of Cthulhu). Or you can build your own setting at the table using the game's core deck.
It can be played solo or with a group of 2-5 players.
Lovecraftesque is a great pick-up or convention game, telling a complete story in around 2 hours, with zero prep required.
The Lovecraftesque core box includes:
• Two rulebooks containing the game's core rules and extras such as solo and legacy play;
• 175 cards, including a core deck of hundreds of creative prompts to power your game, and six unique scenarios bringing new settings and characters to the eldritch horror genre;
• Gorgeous full-colour art by Vincent Sammy and Paul Tomes;
• Cool hidden illustrations throughout the box, board and rulebooks, which is revealed using a UV/blacklight flashlight, included with the game.
