Occultation
Occultation is a hack of Graham Walmsley’s Cthulhu Dark and Jason Tocci’s 2400; it also takes inspiration from Trophy and Fate. It’s intended as a simple set of rules for running published horror adventures in a low-crunch, storygame-inflected style, without the ableist baggage of many horror games. For my sins, I like a lot of trad horror roleplaying modules, and this is how I like to play them. I hope you like it too. This is an early, pretty bare bones version of the game but includes everything you need to play. I intend to update it with optional rules, expanded GM advice and tools, and maybe some adventures.
