I'm stuck in an airport but the #BundleOfHolding has a #Cthulhu deal still going for 3 more days. It included #Lovecraftesque and #CthulhuDark, both of which are highly regarded.

Bundle of Tentacles 7

Investigator! This Bundle of Tentacles 7 is our seventh all-new library of Sanity-shattering tabletop roleplaying ebooks inspired by the Cthulhu Mythos. Illuminate your position in the cosmos with five complete standalone games like Legacy of Cthulhu, Rise of R'lyeh, Eldritch Tales, and the new edition of Lovecraftesque, plus a system-neutral sourcebook (cults, cults, cults!) and Graham Walmsley's seminal treatise Stealing Cthulhu, which Gnome Stew's Martin Ralya dubbed "one of the best gaming books I've ever read."

Lovecraftesque (Tirant lo Dau)

L’Institut d’Estudis Primigenis (IEP) és l’ens de referència per a l’estudi dels Primigenis i els Coneixements Arcans als Països Catalans

¿Pero qué fantasía es esta? ¡Que en la caja viene una linterna UV y los libros están repletos de dibujos y mensajes ocultos! #Lovecraftesque
Today we played #lovecraftesque by @BeckyA and @armadajosh - specifically the "WE SERVE AND PROTECT" Scenario. Our only previous shared storytelling was via "Icarus", so our story was (expectedly) a little bumpy, but held together like one of the Herbert West - Reanimator movies. A little tacky, but all in all something that would qualify for a classic Game Mastered Pen&Paper Scenario 😆#ttrpg #rpg
@nisjasper Meine *liebste* Alternative ist kein Indie, hmm ... #TinyCthulhu wurde in den Replies, noch nicht erwähnt. Hab ich aber auch noch nicht gelesen oder gespielt. #CthulhuDark hab ich schon gelesen und fands okay, aber nicht umwerfend. Für #MythosWorld & #Lovecraftesque gilt das gleiche. Wenn meine Leute mal was cthuloides spielen wollen, dann meistens direkt den Platzhirschen, sofern ich sie nicht selbst zu #TrailOfCthulhu umleite, das aber *vor allem* investigativ & wenig pulpig ist. 🐙
@HeyeBodo My favorite horror game so far is #BluebeardsBride - fantastically written, easy to adjust to different lines & veils, and with great mechanics to emphasize the creepy-scary-oppressive vibe. I've also enjoyed #TrophyDark, #TrophyGold, #Lovecraftesque (2E playtest version), and parts of #TheBetween (the least explicitly horror game of this list) but I haven't spent as much time with them.
@HeyeBodo Ich mag #Lovecraftesque, bei dem die Spielenden gemeinsam mit wechselnder Rollen die Geschichte einer Person und ihren Weg in den Abgrund erzählen.
Außerdem #TenCandles, das mit dem langsam ausgehenden Lichtern und dem ritualisierten Wiederholen von "Diese Dinge sind wahr. Die Welt ist dunkel. Und wir sind am Leben." eine sehr dichte Atmosphäre schafft.
Played a very intriguing first session of #Lovecraftesque v2 in a playtest today. So far we have a Sigourney-Weaver-in-Alien-esque main character (middle-aged, though), a sun temple and side cult to that, a bunch of weird scientists, and a friendly android. Very curious to see how things will progress next week!

@armadajosh Sì, direi di sì. Voglio dire: apprezzo molti tipi diversi di giochi (e non tutti hanno regole giocattolose) ma, in genere, considero molto soddisfacente quando riesco a giocare con le regole senza diventare inutilmente pedante.

Un esempio di gioco che considero bello, ma che non ha decisamente delle regole giocattolose, è proprio il tuo (e di Becky) “Lovecraftesque”. 😊
