IF you’ve ever wanted to get into Call of Cthulhu or RuneQuest, publishers Chaosium have just made their respective starter sets available in .pdf format on DriveThruRPG for AUD$1.49 until January 19.
They’re advertised at $0.99c, but that’s in American Dollars. Still, $1.49 for a TTRPG starter set is a fantastic deal (even as .pdfs) and they’re well worth getting if you’re looking for a new TTRPG to try out.
The Call of Cthulhu starter set (which, incidentally, I reviewed and highly recommend) contains:
- A solo scenario that teaches you to play
- Quickstart rules
- 3 scenarios designed for new players
- 5 pregenerated characters
- Maps and handouts
- Blank character sheets to make investigators of your own design
The RuneQuest TTRPG starter set contains:
- A solo scenario that teaches you to play
- 3 scenarios designed for new players
- A whopping 60 page book introducing the mythic, Bronze Age setting of Glorantha
- 14 pregenerated adventurers
- Basic rules
- Maps, handouts, and tables
