About Berlin: The Wicked City

Product Description The Wickedest City on Earth. In the aftermath of the Great War, Berlin maintains a reputation for licentiousness. A place where anything can be had for the right price. It is a city of both hedonism and business; its streets overflow with disabled veterans, prostitutes, destitute immigrants, and political agitators all rubbing shoulders with buttoned-down businessmen, scholars, and artists. The gutters run with the blood of political assassinations, where Communists and völkisch Nationalists clash with each other and the police. Long into the evenings, Berlin's world-famous cabarets offer music, dance, and titillating entertainment in stark contrast to the gray buildings that run on for endless miles along the sprawling city's byways. Into this bubbling stew, Berlin: The Wicked City introduces the weird elements of the Cthulhu Mythos a hotbed of secret organizations, sinister cults, and half-whispered lore. Amid the wicked air of the world s capital of sin, the very nature of what it means to be human is questioned. And as the city hurtles toward its inevitable dark destiny, the oppressive atmosphere pushes the sanity of investigators to its breaking point. This supplement is best used with the CALL OF CTHULHU roleplaying game and optionally PULP CTHULHU, both available separately. Review What a book! Call of Cthulhu might not be for children in the first place, Chaosium however has outdone itself here... Sex, drugs and cabaret, or probably the best sourcebook/adventure book combo that I have ever read. STYLE 5/5 SUBSTANCE 5/5 --Antonios S., RPGNet.I confess I'm blown away Not only are the three adventure scenarios among the best I've seen for Call of Cthulhu, the detail provided for Berlin is on par with the best city modules or gazetteers for any RPG. Rating: 5 stars out of 5. --The Busybody...sets the blueprint for what a good city or setting supplement should be like for Call of Cthulhu... it more than does the setting of the Wickedest City on Earth justice and it enables the investigators to explore that setting in three tales that cover the influence of the Mythos in a decade of danger, dissipation, and decay. --Reviews from R'lyeh
