Hi, I'm thinking about running a Cthulhu Hack game. Just checking to see if there's any interest.

What’s a Cthulhu Hack game?

Looks like a rules light system for mythos adventures:

Seems a little abstracted so would need some keeper work and player buy in to keep the story interesting and to not feel too random. I'd be up for it, sounds like the character generation is relatively easy.

I'd like to give it a try.

Happy to give it a try.

For those interested a free starter copy of the rules is available https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/19 ... t_filtered

Of course these are only basic rules. Think a dirty set of CoC, or as Eric Dodd says, "... If you liked the simplicity of Cthulhu Dark but felt you needed a few more tools and levers to build a game around, without having to track 40 or 50 skills or detailed weapon statistics, then The Cthulhu Hack might be just what you’re looking for." (RPGGeek)

I'm working on a story, so bear with me

The full rules as pdf are only about $5.

After much thought, I've decided against this and stick to straight Call of Cthulhu. I am thinking I will try a TOME scenario I bought way back in 1983, so hopefully no one will have played it. Called 'The Arkham Evil' and set in America and begins in the spring of 1919. Anyone interested?

Yep, I'd be interested.

Okay that's one. I reckon four more players max. Although it was ritten with early editions in mind (first I think) I'm going to run it for 7th.

I’m happy to give it a go.

I'll play too. I haven't played or heard of that one before.

So that would give me three victims er players One or two more and it's a go

I've no idea what I'm doing - may I sign up please? I've just downloaded the quick rules thing to peruse.

Priest has a abandoned the idea of Cthulhu Hack and proposed a new 7th Edition game: https://www.callofcthulhu.org.uk/pbp/vi ... =39&t=6956

Thanks, Mephistophilis, I'll take a look.
