Staff Pick

OBS_chris.pngCatthulhu is a great game to start introducing your kids to the horror genre in RPGs, but without going full sanity loss. What makes it great is that it’s also a good game for adults looking for something a little spooky, but with lighter rules, or something a little light-hearted without breaking the horror genre. I've found that having a little light can make the shadows sometimes feel that much deeper.

The rules are simple and use D6-based pools, with a fair amount of luck for cats, so give this a try and stop Catthulhu from awakening.

Are the full-size previews missing intentionally? (Previous poster mentioned this a while back). I'm debating getting the bundle this and book 2 come in (includes Worlds of Catthulhu).

I know it's years later, but the previews currently seem to be working. (I'm mostly posting this for others' benefit, since nobody replied to you about it being fixed.)

"Neko" is Japanese for "cat". Hee, hee, hee. And somewhere in there, there should be a Shaggoth...

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
