Less than 48 hours remain before the Cthulhu Dreamt campaign comes to a close!
We just wanted to say a quick thank you for such an awesome campaign and let you in on a little news!
To celebrate the final hours, we'll be livestreaming the close of the campaign on:
📅 Friday, July 24 🕤 Approximately 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM EST
We'll be joined by the lead game designer and the composer behind Cthulhu Dreamt's original soundtrack for a behind-the-scenes look at how the game came together.
We'll be talking about:
The inspiration behind Cthulhu Dreamt
Designing the narrative d12 system
Building the world, story, and campaign
Writing and recording more than 8 hours of original music
Questions from the community
Watching the campaign count down together
We'd love to have you join us!
There's still time to join the campaign, unlock the remaining stretch goals, and become part of Cthulhu Dreamt before the dream comes to an end. Thanks again - we'll see ya Friday!
One of our favorite parts of Cthulhu Dreamt is that someone can just reach across the table and say "Wait...let me see that."
Throughout the campaign, you'll uncover physical clues designed to be shared with your group. Some answer questions, while others create entirely new ones.
Evidence from the Field A few examples include recovered reports from previous expeditions, personnel files, and documents that raise more questions than they answer.
Maps Worth Studying Not every mystery can be solved by following the main road.
Maps reveal hidden locations, forgotten routes, and details your players might otherwise overlook. Sometimes the safest path isn't the obvious one.
Every Player Gets Involved One of our goals with Cthulhu Dreamt was to create moments where everyone at the table leans in together. They could be passing around an old report or comparing two photos.
Help Us Unlock Our Next Stretch Goal We're getting closer to our next milestone, and this one will make these materials even easier to use at your table.
When we reach $50,000, we'll unlock a print-ready digital pack containing every handout, recovered document, photograph, and puzzle from the campaign.
Everything will be collected into a single, easy-to-print file, so Facilitators can prepare sessions quicker.
Thanks again for supporting Cthulu Dreamt. More soon!

Operational Notice

Our analysts have determined it is most likely:
An unusual weather event
A harmless optical illusion
Promotional artwork
