We are going to tell a story together. The story of a lone individual stumbling upon clues to a terrible evil. At first they dismiss it, but piece by piece a picture emerges, until suddenly it becomes impossible to deny. They plunge into shadow, they recoil in horror, but it is already too late. The horrifying truth is laid bare and they are consumed by darkness.
Lovecraftesque is a GMless tabletop game that creates a compelling cosmic horror tale in a single session of play. You tell the story of a lone Witness at the mercy of strange and terrifying events. The game helps you create a slow-building mystery, culminating in a climactic scene of horror.
- You create your own monsters and mystery that feel like something out of Lovecraft’s notebook.
- All the players contribute clues to surprise and creep each other out.
- The rules ensure that the story flows seamlessly, as if an invisible GM were guiding it.
- There won’t be any Mi-Go or Deep Ones—you’ll get a completely fresh take on the genre.
LOVECRAFTESQUE IS A GAME FOR 1-5 PEOPLE AND TAKES 2-3 HOURS TO PLAY.
The first edition was critically acclaimed, won the Gioco Dell’Anno (Game Of The Year) award, was a finalist in the IGDN indie groundbreakers, and influenced a generation of mystery games like Brindlewood Bay, Apocalypse Keys and Bleak Spirit. Following its success, we crowdfunded a new second edition boxed set, building on the lessons from the first to make an even slicker, more inspiring, easier-to-learn experience, with brand new art and a plethora of exciting new scenarios for the game.
