This week Treavor and his lovely wife Tara run through a solo adventure for Call of Cthulhu - Alone Against the Flames - which can be found in the Starter Kit. This will hopefully help everyone understand some of the rules for Call of Cthulhu ahead of the next four episodes in which Ben (Puffin Forest) will be running us through his homebrew game. Enjoy!

ATTENTION: If you haven't listened to Episode 5 of Witchwood do that first before listening to this bonus episode. After finished our Witchwood game we started up another recording to talk about how we felt about Monster of the Week as a system. The players talk about character creation, learning the rules, and actually playing the game. After that Treavor talks for a little bit about how setting up the Mystery and overall running Monster of the Week went for him.
