Based on the Four against Darkness system, this pen-and-paper game pits the player(s) against classic Lovecraftian horror. The game can be played solo, coop, or RPG-lite.
Four Investigators and a party of Helpers will travel 1930s America looking for three Clues to uncover the location of an upcoming great ritual. They only have 40 days to find and stop the ritual, before the world comes to an untimely end!
The core of the game revolves around a system of encounter tables that will generate terrifying events and will provide the players with clues, arcane items, and more terrifying events! Combat is dice-based and highly tactical, due to the many options the players have in their attack and defense phases.
Relevant features include:
8 new classes of main Investigators, plus MANY types of Helpers for nuanced customization...
... but the players shouldn't get too attached to any character in particular. High lethality.
