Solitaire Adventure by the Lakeshore!

A Flooded Town

What has Professor Harris’ research got to do with the strange green fog enveloping the town? Who are the menacing, dark-suited men that arrived on the ferry with your investigator? And, why is a Buddhist monk visiting Esbury, a town more used to entertaining New England’s wealthy elite?

Take on the role of an investigator traveling to a remote lakeside town where strange things are happening. Decide your path through the story, and the fate of the citizens of Esbury!

"A solid challenge, but very approachable... and by going though this adventure I feel way more confident about running Call of Cthulhu (as a Keeper)."

— Staying In Podcast, Along Against the Tide.
"Whether you’re new to CallOfCthulhu, or you’re looking for a way to take a character off on a solo excursion, Alone Against The Tide is a great way to splash around in the shallows of the mythos before diving in"
