Heart of Cthulhu, 1912 is a Lovecraftian Horror RPG based on Daggerheart.
The game is made of 2 hardcover volumes, plus other stuff.

Talents replace Ancestries. Social Standings replace Communities. There are 9 classes replacing Daggerheart's, with 3 subclasses each. Modern and unique weapons rules, and a brand new Sanity system (of course)

The game entry is through an adventure set on the RMS Titanic, but there are also 5 campaign frames (not the usual corner of New England, but with a global perspective: New York, Paris, Shanghai, Zanzibar and Bahia.

I am one of the Devs, and very excited to bring this to the wider community.
We are underdogs, but all veterans in the industry (art, writing, rpg, boardgames).

If I may, Daggerheart + Cthulhu is a marriage made in heaven (or at least in the dreadful cosmic void). Daggerheart's narrative - character centered - approach shines brightly in the horror genre. And its system helps to make it genuinely epic!

There are a lot of details in the Campaign and its updates, but I would like to use the Reddit opportunity for answering any and all of your questions.
About mechanics, about the setting, about the design.

As a small tasty bit, you can check this game-book like experience, and discover which may be your fated class.
