I've always enjoyed Call of Cthulhu. I'm not sure I'd run it as a full campaign, but as a break from a more tradition RPG for a few sessions I think it truly shines.
An opportunity to snag the PDF of Call of Cthulhu 6th edition (most current is 7th edition) for Four Bucks is simply a no brainer if you have never had the CoC bug in your head ;) Grab it by 10 AM Eastern 12/17/19.
The Great Old Ones ruled the earth aeons before the rise of humankind. Originally they came from the gulfs of space and were cast down by even greater beings. Remains of their cyclopean cities and forbidden knowledge can still be found on remote islands in the Pacific, buried amid the shifting sands of vast deserts, and in the frigid recesses of the polar extremes. Now they sleep -- some deep within the enveloping earth and others beneath the eternal sea, in the drowned city of R'lyeh, preserved in the waters by the spells of mighty Cthulhu. When the stars are right they will rise, and once again walk this Earth.
