Gameplay details
This is a weekly grand campaign of Horror on the Orient Express. If you're new with Call of Cthulhu, that's totally fine. I will guide you through the game rules and character creation process. This is a mystery/investigation adventure, rather than action. You will need to ask the right questions, find the clues, but sometimes, take the risks. Sometimes you might come across with unpleasant scenes, such as murder or body horror. Sometimes that might be more mental, like the moment that your dreams and reality mix-up. If you feel any disturbance or discomfort, you can cut my words and warn me. We can skip the details and continue.
