About the adventure
As you and your companions sail through the icy waters of the North Atlantic aboard your luxurious yacht, the promise of treasure and salvage rights leads you to an eerie sight—a massive, abandoned cargo ship drifting aimlessly in the fog. What begins as a simple quest for valuable goods quickly turns into a nightmare as you uncover the ship’s dark secrets and realize that the true cost of salvage may be far more than you bargained for... An adventure that embraces the classic tropes of maritime horror, unraveling mysteries, and facing unimaginable terror in isolation. Experience the creeping dread, pulse-pounding action, and escalating tension as you navigate this thrilling scenario. A must-play for fans of Call of Cthulhu seeking a chilling, unforgettable one-shot!
