Some flames burn through the ages. We had a veritable blast playing through Steve Anderson's debut scenario: "Arkham Fire". While presented as a Modern scenario its 46 pages spans scenes at different time periods weaving them together to take players through times from before 1920 and up to modern time. It's hard to reveal too much about this without spoilers, but trust us and roll with it, it will make sense in the end and has a great payoff. It's designed to be run with 3-5 players, and our playthrough was with 1 Keeper and 4 players. We spend a little over 4 hours on the run, so it should be manageable for an experienced Keeper to pace it as a convention slot scenario. We loved the unique premises of playing as a group of firefighters. Included is 6 pre-generated Investigators, but also presents splendid advice on how to run it for existing or player-generated Investigators. We ran it with 4 of the pre-gens and they fit the scenario perfectly. We loved the custom bout of madness templates and a nicely pulled artistic trick to let players put their personal touch on the pregens. The structure and pacing of the scenario was easy to follow as a Keeper. One tiny bit of railroading is crucial at the start for the scenario to make sense, but it should come naturally to most groups and players likely won't even notice it's a requirement when it's pulled off. The interior design is lovely, with thematic background, great pictures and clearly presented maps and handouts. If we have to offer one tiny point of negative critique the cover seems to be a little bland but it is a tiny nitpick, and its evident that Steve has put a lot of work into the scenarios creation with a high production quality easily justifying the $ 5.99 price.

But where are the kangaroos?*
This 1890s Australian historical scenario by David Waldron is superb.

*Seriously, there are no Kangaroos. It´s an outrage! 😉
But where are the kangaroos?* After our short medical-induced break, we are now back in fine physical health. Just don't ask about our sanity. We celebrated by convening to play a (highly deserving) award-winning scenario. "William Bailey’s Haunted Mansion" by David Waldron and Shannon Nichols brought us to colonial Australia's 1890s Ballarat in a historically inspired scenario. Written as a tight and atmospheric one-shot, it plunged our pre-made Investigators into a setting involving seances, cults, betrayal, and creeping cosmic horror in the rough mining community surrounding Bailey's mansion. The scenario is superbly structured, and it practically ran itself. Preparation was easy for our Keeper and made even more so with access to the actual play performance of it at the Ballarat Heritage Festival. (Go watch it on YouTube if you plan to run it, it's amazing.) It has a clean layout, streamlined organization, and a clear writing style, making it easy to run right out of the box, with little to no prep notes. Dr. Waldron's background as a historian makes the colonial Australian setting stand out. Historical figures, locations, and objects from the era are masterfully utilized, giving it a grounded, authentic tone. We found it served exceedingly well to heighten the horror experience and provided a lot of depth and drama for our group. The map handouts' historical nature made a few of them hard to read, so an alternative modern version of them would have been nice, but they are superb for the atmosphere. We loved the ruthlessness and betrayal present, and absolutely detested the sleazy cult leader. The scenario ran for a little over three hours, followed by almost two hours of discussions and googling of historical details. With an admission fee of only $3.97 for the PDF we highly recommend that you enter the mansion of William Bailey. It is simply a perfect pick for Keepers seeking a historical one-shot with minimal prep and maximum payoff. If we have to s…

Lauren Hodges cocked up a fine meal for you to relish.
This culinary horror in 1920s Arkham is mouthwatering.

#CallofCthulhu #TTRPG #MiskatonicRepository #Chaosium
Are you hungry? We devoured Lauren Hodges' Miskatonic Repository debut, "Feed the Many, over the weekend and swore off pasta after our feast. In addition to cooking up the scenario, Lauren garnished it with her own illustrations, and we love the art style she brings to the table. The main course of this narrative dish is a 1920s Arkham experience, simmered to perfection for 3–5 Investigators over 1–3 sessions. Our group played it in one long serving, spending some 8 hours, including tips, to do so. We would have relished an appetizer in the form of premade investigators, but thankfully, our Keeper whipped up a fresh batch for us. The scenario has a fine hook to reel in a group's existing Investigators and thus serve as a satisfying bite in between the banquet of a campaign's scenarios, which does diminish the drawback of the missing pregens. Some meals are an acquired taste, and diners with a queasy stomach better seek their sustenance elsewhere. Body horror, graphic gore, and parasitic infestation are among the things the chef has to navigate his picky eaters through. A thematically fitting X-card, with proper instruction in its meaning and use, is included as part of the menu. As a group, we were delighted to partake in this scenario. With its clear and digestible structure, it was easy for the Keeper to prep and plate, and left us aghast after the rich, horrifying flavors of the finale. Purely by chance, we appear to have become a food critic service as much as a review blog. About 2 months ago, we gave you a reason to avoid raspberries after playing "Whispers from the Bramble´s Heart" by Robert Gresham; now, thanks to Laurens' cooking, we are urging you to also avoid Spaghetti Bolognese. You´ll understand why after playing it yourself. Dig into today’s special for just $4.99 https://tinyurl.com/4k4984td #CallofCthulhu #TTRPG #MiskatonicRepository #Chaosium

Ever felt IKEA hides an ominous secret? If so, Dread Designs by Christopher Dimitrios won't entirely disuade you of the notion. We had the pleasure of playing it Saturday afternoon and had a great time. While IDEA is "clearly not" inspired by a certain Swedish chain of furniture warehouses, it is an easy "mistake" to draw the comparison, so we decided to make a little joke out of it and play it in an IKEA warehouse in their cafeteria. Intended for 3-5 players, it comes with 5 pre-generated Investigators, to be played in a single session, it is quite suitable for a convention slot. We spent about 5 hours on our IKEA run, including a small break to explain to a few curious onlookers what we were doing. The scenario is in a contemporary setting designed to play out in an imaginary town in Oregon in 2011. Location and timeline can be adjusted, but we ran it as written, as we saw no compelling reason to change it. Investigators take the roles of undercover IDEA security forces tasked with exploring weird happenings inside the warehouse and its showroom. A task that is further complicated by a protest against cases of alleged illegal logging performed by IDEA. In order to keep the review spoiler free we won't go into detail on whats causing the trouble but Investigators will be hard pressed on several fronts with the investigation and the protests. In the end, our group perished, but a happy ending is not impossible. $4.00 for 27 pages providing us with a fun afternoon seems reasonable, so purchase a copy and have fun. https://tinyurl.com/5f85tray #CallofCthulhu #TTRPG #MiskatonicRepository #Chaosium If reviews like this are something you enjoy, please follow us at facebook, bluesky or instagram.

Dare to tempt fate?

Jade Griffin has written a classic 1920 era campaign worthy of becoming a new classic, with fate and twists on Luck entwined in the scenarios.

#CallofCthulhu #TTRPG #MiskatonicRepository #Chaosium
Dare to tempt fate? Buckle up and prepare for what appears to be a fantastic 1920-era campaign by Jade Griffin. This installment comprises Chapters 1-4, but an additional 4 chapters are slated for release in 2025-2026. Reading the 306-page compendium was a pleasure. Jade has done extensive research, and I love her writing style. The campaign has a supporting novel, which isn't mandatory reading, but I'm looking forward to diving into it once my TBR pile is slightly diminished. The campaign has a ton of lovely tools to make running it smooth, with a great introduction and wonderful tips on inclusion. Plenty of staging advice, amazing handouts, and custom tables for Bouts of Madness and how Fate influences Investigators who spend all their Luck are just a few of the things that make the campaign stand out uniquely. With Pre-made Investigators and a character-focused plot, it is engaging and will provide players with very personal experiences while submitting them to newly created monsters, spells and talents. While the 4 chapters can be purchased individually, I can't think of a single reason not to buy the combined compendium, and the sheer amount of material more than justifies the $21.99 cost. (or 45.99 for a printed copy) Grab your own copy here and strap in for something extraordinary. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/507281/embraced-fate-amor-fati-1-4?affiliate_id=629746 #CallofCthulhu #TTRPG #MiskatonicRepository #Chaosium

Would you care for a pipe of opium? Cancelations for a game night happen from time to time, and our group is not immune to it either. Fortunately, scenarios intended for a Keeper and 1-2 players exist, and Matthew Morris´ "Smoke on the Hungpu" was a godsend for this weekend as we found ourselves with a diminished group. The scenario does include 4 pre-made Investigators, so it's also possible to run it at a higher playcount. 1930s Shanghai is an excellent setting for a Call of Cthulhu adventure. It´s hodgepodge of overlapping jurisdictions in a rapidly growing cosmopolitan with many active groups, legal as well as illegal, creates a chaotic ambience well suited to keep Investigators on their toes. Just make sure they steer clear of the opium dens. The scenario was smooth to prepare and run due to the clear instructions, perfect handouts, and carefully curated information about China and Shanghai. It felt like the 32 pages contained more information than should be possible, and non-Euclidean geometry might have been used in its creation. The provided soundtrack is an amazing touch to set the tone for each scene. If only more authors did this. This is clearly a labour of love from Matt, and his extensive research and dedication are evident throughout the scenario. After an intense playthrough, our group highly recommends it, and $4.99 is money well spent on this!
