![]() |
Historical Horror Roleplaying in the Shadows of Revolution
The venerable Colonial Gothic returns in a brand-new Fourth Edition-refined¸ expanded¸ and more terrifying than ever.
Witches stalk the woods. Devils strike deals in candlelit alleys. The Revolution has begun-and something darker has risen with it.
Welcome to Colonial Gothic¸ a historical horror roleplaying game set in the shadow-soaked 18th century. From haunted woods to secret societies¸ players uncover a hidden war alongside the American Revolution. You don't play heroes-you play midwives¸ pastors¸ and smugglers drawn into terrors that defy reason.
Colonial Gothic is a game of creeping dread¸ arcane power¸ and revolutionary action. Three game modes-High-Action¸ Occult & Mystery¸ and Supernatural-offer flexible playstyles. Its streamlined mechanics keep gameplay fast and cinematic while immersing players in an atmospheric¸ lore-rich world. Magic is dangerous¸ knowledge is costly¸ and nothing is what it seems.
