A downloadable Chamado dos Abissais

Versão em Português

Chamado dos Abissais é um RPG de mesa com regras minimalistas emulando o famoso jogo Chamado de Cthulhu, baseado nas obras do escritor americano Howard Phillips Lovecraft, autor de contos como Dagon, Gatos de Ulthar e Nyarlathotep, além do próprio Chamado de Cthulhu que dá nome à mitologia de suas obras de horror cósmico: os Mythos de Cthulhu.

Neste RPG os jogadores interpretam investigadores em busca  de mistérios sombrios, eventos insólitos e sonhos proféticos, mas sob o véu da realidade estão escondidas respostas indescritíveis e aterrorizantes que era melhor terem permanecido ocultas.

Pegue sua lanterna, ajeite seu chapéu fedora e não leia aquele livro que você encontrou nas coisas do seu tio avô que parece te atrair… isso, meu amigo, é o Chamado dos Abissais.

English version

Call of the Deep Ones is a tabletop RPG with minimalist rules which emule the famous game “Call of Cthulhu”, based on the short stories and novels written by the American author Howard Phillips Lovecraft as Dagon, Cats of Ulthar, Nyarlathotep and the Call of Cthulhu itself which gave the name to the cosmic horror mythologie: the Cthulhu Mythos.

In this game, players get the role of investigators in search of dark mysteries, weird events and prophetic dreams, but under the veil of reality lies the indescribable answers which should stay hidden.

Take your lantern, adjust your Fedora hat and do not read that book which attracts you, hidden between the stuff which belonged to your grandfather… that, my friend, is the Call of the Deep Ones.

Hello!  While I eagerly await the English version, I put the Portuguese version through Google Translate so I could give the game a read.  Some observations:

There do not appear to be any rules for healing from physical injuries or recovering lost sanity points.

The ever-popular 'Spot Hidden' skill does not appear to be present.

There is no rule for how to engage in an opposed skill contest (for example: my investigator tries to notice the cultist sneaking up behind him, or my investigator tries to dodge the swing of a cultist's machete blow).

These are just some observations as I read the document.  I am looking forward to the English version!  

Cheers and best,

Brian C.

Is there an English language version of this fine game?

Existe uma versão em inglês deste belo jogo?

Thank you/Obrigada,
