The rule system and mechanics this book provides combined with the setting makes for a perfect recipe for something sinister and enjoyable. This is the first time I read and play a book that is a TTRPG adventure. I have only gotten to play solo with the oracle system and can't wait to play with friends and family. I would say this is a great book for beginners trying to get into TTRPG or who just want to loose themselves in a pos apocalyptic world trying to survive. Thank you to the authors of this book

The Legacy of Cthulhu

Absolutely love this game. It is definitely not for everyone. The lack of help that you get from the game is a metaphor for the lack of help our ancestors had. I am really excited for the next game in the trilogy. I hope they continue making games like this. I could definitely see a version of this game being implemented in a lecture to teach students about our historical evolution and struggles. I have a new appreciation for the passage of time both in terms of real time spent playing and in humanitie's timeline. At times I was scared to die and end the lineage that I had worked so hard for, it made me realize how scary if must have been for animals back in the day. It is definitely different to read about it in books then to experience it through a game model. If anyone is doing anything related to educational technology and the study of humanity this game could be used as a talking point to connect with a younger generation.
