Cthulhu Confidential is a roleplaying game designed for one player and one game master. It's powered by the GUMSHOE One-2-One game system which retunes, rebuilds and re-imagines the acclaimed GUMSHOE investigative rules set, as seen in such hit roleplaying games as Trail of Cthulhu and Night's Black Agents, for one player and one GM. Together, you create a story that evokes the classic solo protagonist mystery format. Cthulhu Confidential drops your hero into the noir nightscape of hardboiled-era Los Angeles, New York or Washington, DC. Meet power brokers and politicians, rub shoulders with Hollywood studio bosses and fiery evangelists. Face narrow-eyed G-Men, bent cops and dangerous crime lords. But beneath it all, under the scrim of all this human endeavor, lives corruption so old and inhuman you'll need all your courage and resourcefulness to face it. Choose one of three heroes with their own settings and adventures: Langston Wright is an African-American war veteran and scholar in WW2-era DC with a keen intellect. Dex Raymond is a hard-boiled private detective in 1930s Los Angeles with a nose for trouble. And Vivian Sinclair is The New York Herald's most determined scoop-hound. Each is a lone investigator, equipped with smarts, fists, and just maybe a code of honor, uncovering their town's secret truths. But what happens when you scratch the veneer of human malfeasance to reveal an eternal evil-the malign, cosmic indifference of HP Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos?
