| 4 + 4 | merb101 | Call of Cthulhu Sixth Edition. The classic horror game set in Lovecraft's world of dark lore and elder things. Possibly one of the best horror games available, if you are into lengthy investigations, researching old tomes and eventually going insane. [ Read Review ] |
| 5 + 5 | Travire | Call of Cthulhu. By far and away the best roleplaying game ever ! Deserving of the numerous awards and accolades it has been given, Call of Cthulhu goes from strength to strength. A must have for every serious roleplayer. [ Read Review ] |
