Prolific Games has been around since 2008 with our most famous game being Flapjacks and Sasquatches*. We had some great ideas to change the game play of Flapjacks but decided our core fan base may not like changes in their favorite card game. So we decided to create a new game. Cultists & Cthulhu** uses the same basic mechanics of Flapjacks with some changes. The biggest change is the Sacrifices. Sacrifices are cards that can be used to help complete your ritual by adding dice to your roll every turn or discarded (sacrificed) to get automatic successes.

Why Cthulhu? We wanted to throw our hat in the Cthulhu ring but with the Prolific humor you all know and love. There are a bunch of Easter eggs in the game for those who are familiar with Lovecraft's work. There are also images that we hope you all find laugh out loud worthy.

If you love Cthulhu, quick stick it to your neighbor card games, Flapjacks & Sasquatches or us*** then this game is for you.

* Some of that success may be because most people like Brinner and the thought of Flapjacks any time of day is awesome

** There's a formula to these titles. You have to have a monster and something that gets eaten. Not that you as a cultist will get eaten. I'm sure YOU will be fine.

But you never know with dark gods: who can predict them, right? Right.

***When I say love us I of course mean in the friendly "hey, you guys rock, here's some bacon" kind of way, not the "lock us in your house Misery" kind of way.

The game will contain at least:
* 35 Ritual cards
* 94 Cultist cards
* 7 six sided dice
* 25 success counters
* 1 rules sheet

Cultists & Cthulhu is a light, humorous "take that" card game about summoning dark gods and going insane. For 2-8 players

* Provides a detailed exploration of the important events of 2086.
* Provides a look into pop culture in the Strange Aeon.
* Provides an exploration of four smaller year-long plots that can be used with any game, with suggestions on how to weave them into existing stories.
* Provides a detailed look at four major areas of the overarcing storyline, including the war against the Disciples of the Rapine Storm in China, the continuing quest of the Esoteric Order of Dagon to find their lost city, the Eldritch Society's investigation into the Chrysalis Corporation's plans in the Pacific Northwest, and the Migou's invasion of North America.
* Includes ready-to-run stories for each major storyline that put Characters front and center for the biggest action in the setting.
* Provides the option to play as one of three powerful new professions within the secret New Earth Government agency known only as Special Services.

Compatibility: Requires the CthulhuTech Core Book; use of Vade Mecum and Dark Passions recommended; expands setting, character options, foes, and stories to CthulhuTech players.

The Adventures of the Bow Street Runners in their Struggle Against the Minions of the Cthulhu Mythos

London, 1749: A city of vice, crime, and misery. Gangs of ruffians rule the streets, unopposed. Brothels proliferate. Child-beggars starve in filthy gutters. Corrupt night-watchmen and thief-takers turn a blind eye to wrong-doing.

And dark creatures lurk in back alleys, called from beyond by the desperate with nothing left to lose. But there is a new force on the streets of London, for the author and magistrate Henry Fielding has teamed up with his brother John to form the city`s first police force the Bow Street Runners.

Powered by the Renaissance D100 system and mixing authentic history and the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft, players in Dark Streets take on the roles of officers in London`s first, desperately small, police force, investigating the dark secrets behind the sordid crimes of eighteenth century London.

Nowhere to Hide...

No one is safe. You aren't safe. Ancient and inimical, the alien influences of the Cthulhu Mythos are all around us. In our cities, our nightclubs, our backyards, and heading for our front porches right now. From the dreaming city of Kingsport, Massachusetts, to the lonely northern woods and the barren western deserts. The urban sprawl and the distant lake. The depths of the Pacific and the freezing ruin of a starless Earth. They are here, destroying us, devouring us, shattering our minds with the one truth we cannot bear to admit: that no matter what we do we cannot escape the fact that, deep down, we are very much like them.

Dead But Dreaming 2 is the second volume of the critically-acclaimed anthology series from Miskatonic River Press.

Herein are 22 tales of Lovecraftian horror from the modern masters of Cthulhu Mythos fiction: Scott David Aniolowski, David Annandale, Donald R. Burleson, Cody Goodfellow, John Goodrich, T.E. Grau, Rick Hautala, Walt Jarvis, Erik T. Johnson, William Meikle, Will Murray, Daniel W. Powell, Wilum Pugmire, Joseph S. Pulver Sr, Pete Rawlik, Kevin Ross, Brian Sammons, Darrell Schweitzer, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Michael Tice, and Don Webb.

Jossakin kaukana Floridan auringosta Lauran, Sanen, Sonjan ja Markuksen bändi The Suffering soittaa metallia fanittamiensa Deathin ja Obituaryn hengessä.

Yllättäen nuorille avautuu tilaisuus äänittää demonauha oikeassa studiossa — mutta onnenpotkulla on kohtalokas kääntöpuolensa. 90-luvun alun Turkuun sijoittuva lämminhenkinen ja hienovarainen tarina kertoo ystävyydestä ja siitä miten vakavienkin asioiden äärellä voi valita epätoivon sijaan toivon.

Death Metal on kertomus elämästä, kuolemasta ja brutaalista äärimetallista.

A new Arkham Horror novella by Chris A. Jackson, which includes four new cards for Arkham Horror: The Card Game.

“I dream under the sea, and I see faces, bloated faces with bulging eyes. They remind me of people I knew as a boy, half-drowned, but not dead.” Silas shivered, but not from the chill gusts blowing through the open door. Pointed teeth grinned, webbed hands reaching for him, glowing eyes in the darkness… He couldn’t tell Martin those details, of course. Some things you couldn’t say aloud if you wanted to stay out of the madhouse.
–Chris A. Jackson, The Deep Gate

What secrets have been drowned in Devil Reef?
Silas Marsh has always felt called to the sea. As a young lad, he left his family in fear-shadowed Innsmouth and made a name for himself sailing the seven seas. But after the death of his parents, the sea’s call has only grown stronger. Silas has dreams—nightmares—of pointed teeth grinning, webbed hands reaching, and eyes glowing in the darkness of the ocean deeps. No one in his family is able to offer an explanation for his dreams, or at least, no one is willing.

A Dark Prophecy
Silas didn't want to make the trip back to Arkham, but the chance to find answers about his malady was too enticing to pass up. He returned to the area in search of someone who could tell him whether the nightmares that plague his nights are some sort of family ailment, like dropsy or ulcers. There seemed to be a pall of silence hanging over everyone he spoke to, but one cousin seems willing to help Silas gain some insight.

So, when desperate librarian Abigail Foreman comes to Silas with questions of her own, he cannot turn her away. Her ancient and mysterious tome, the Prophesiae Profana, points to a stellar event foretelling the end of the world, and painted in its margins are the same creatures that haunt Silas’s nightmares. After a few calculations, the pair determine that this terrible event will occur at Devil Reef in three days’ time. With the relentless rains that have been hammering New England, there is only one place where even an experienced sailor can hope to approach the reef from in time to stop this event. Silas must return to Innsmouth.

Within the pages of The Deep Gate, you'll find a thrilling story of nautical horror and heroism, along with fifteen pages of full color inserts. These documents provide you with every piece of evidence at Silas Marsh’s disposal, from journal entries and ocean maps to medical reports and official correspondence. With these documents, you can embody the role of investigator, solving the case alongside Silas Marsh. Perhaps the key to preventing this cosmic catastrophe is hidden within the lines of these pages.

The Sailor
The adventure of The Deep Gate leaves the pages of its tome to expand your investigations in Arkham with four new cards for Arkham Horror: The Card Game! While Silas will return home from the sea and be released in an Arkham Horror: The Card Game product at a later date, this marks his first appearance in the game.

Silas never asked to become part of the world of vengeful Elder Gods and creatures that defy the laws of reality. He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, making him a member of the Survivor class. Having left Innsmouth in favor of the seafarer’s life at a young age, Silas lacked a formal education, leaving him with an intellect of two. Instead, the ship was his schoolroom. Here, Silas learned think on his feet, and arduous days on an unforgiving sea equipped him with combat and agility of four.

Accustomed to extended stays at sea, Silas is well-skilled at making the most of limited resources. This ingenuity shines through in Silas’s ability—once per round after he reveals a chaos token during a skill test, he may return a skill card committed to that test to his hand.

This sailor must also rely on his resourcefulness when using his Elder Sign ability. Silas does not have a strong link to the arcane and often does not believe in what he cannot see. In his mind, sailors may have their superstitions, but a lucky memento is no substitute for nautical prowess and well-kept equipment. When Silas draws an Elder Sign token from the chaos bag, he doesn't gain any direct bonus, but he may commit a skill to the test from his discard pile. Then, once the test is complete, he returns that skill to his hand instead of discarding it.

The Unforgiving Sea
In The Deep Gate, Silas seeks some solution to the Curse that haunts his sleep with Dreams of the Deep (The Deep Gate, 15). This personal weakness acts as a skill card for Silas. However, Dreams of the Deep’s two icons subtract from Silas’s skill value instead of adding to it! Unfortunately for the sailor, he cannot run from this malady and must instead overcome it. If the test that Dreams of the Deep is committed to fails, Silas must return the skill to his hand. And to make matters worse, if this card remains in the investigator’s hand at the end of his turn, he must reveal it and suffer two damage.

Perhaps Silas’s one hope of overcoming these dreadful curse is to use every skill he has gained from his worldwide travels. Over the course of his years at sea, Silas has developed his Nautical Prowess (The Deep Gate, 14). When committed to a skill test, Nautical Prowess can boost any area where Silas feels ill-equipped, possessing willpower, intellect, and wild icons. Then, if a chaos token with a negative modifier is revealed during a test, Silas may choose to either draw a card or have Nautical Prowess gain two wild icons. As the world begins to fall into chaos, there's no telling what Silas’s future may hold, but he is prepared to face any challenges that lie ahead. Are you prepared to join him?

CLAIMED BY THE GOD THAT FEEDS

In early 2001, a few Agents of Delta Green face an evil too cruel to ignore. They can never turn back from what they see or what they must do to stop it. A night of death leaves them scarred forever. But even as one terror fades, another awakens.

The Agents find themselves beset by a power more frightful than Delta Green itself, a force beyond that hungers for unnatural death. A force that hunts horrors like a cat stalking prey. A force that has made the Agents the instruments of its ceaseless devourings.

God’s Teeth follows the Agents across nearly twenty years of dire history:
* GO FORTH (2001): The Agents fall onto a long timeline of bitter choices and terrible repercussions.
* THE LONG YEARS (2001–2016): The Agents are recruited into the new Delta Green, the official Program. Any number of scenarios might follow. The Agents are drawn to horrors.
* RED THOUGHTS (2016): Repercussions from “Go Forth” swim to the surface of public awareness. The Agents must push them down again.
* WHITE TEETH (2016): The Agents must seek victims who survived that awful night of “Go Forth” and became monstrous themselves, murderous youths who work to sharpen the Teeth.
* THE SPIRAL (2016–2020): Terrors converge. The influence of the god that claims the Agents seems only to grow. An FBI tip signals another threat resurrected from the sins of the past.
* THE HIDDEN GOD (2020): As the world embraces plague, the Agents must trace the consequences of their actions, confront impossible foes, and face the appalling force that cursed them.

CONTENT WARNING:
THIS CAMPAIGN CONCERNS AND CONFRONTS VIOLENCE AGAINST CHILDREN. SUCH SUBJECT MATTER CAN BE FAR WORSE, FAR MORE PERSONAL AND AWFUL, THAN THE USUAL COSMIC HORRORS OF DELTA GREEN. ABUSE OF THE HELPLESS IS ALL TOO PRESENT IN OUR WORLD AND IN THE LIVES OF MANY PLAYERS. READ THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN BEFORE YOU BEGIN PLAY.

The wealthy Atlanta suburb of Druid Hills hides secrets. For decades, its children have vanished from public view, withdrawn from school, never reported missing but never seen again. Retired detective Joe Dawant and the nonprofit Center for the Missing Child have witnessed countless crimes visited upon the vulnerable.

Are even the wealthiest and most privileged not safe? But the gates of Druid Hills are shut. They want nothing to do with outside investigators. They have property values and family values to protect. They have police and politicians on their side. They have houses filled with finery, basement chambers no one suspects, and appetites they need not explain.

When Dawant asks Delta Green for help, your Agents may learn just how deep the horrors of Southern prosperity can go. The Good Life is a complete scenario for Delta Green, the role-playing game of Lovecraftian horror and conspiracy.

It complements the sourcebook Delta Green: The Labyrinth, building upon one of the factions presented in that tome. The Good Life is playable with the full rules in the Agents Handbook or the quickstart rules in Delta Green: Need to Know, available from Arc Dream Publishing.
