One of the best RolePlayingGame''''''s of all time, CallOfCthulhu, was based on the writings of HpLovecraft. Its rule system did as much as any to embody the gameworld's ideology. You had a Cthulhu Mythos knowledge skill, ranging from 0% to 100%, and your maximum Sanity was 100-Cthulhu Mythos. So as you learned more, you became more deranged, and a character with full understanding of the Mythos had exactly a 0% chance of being sane. (Non-RPG-players and non-anime-fans, you may skip this paragraph.) So there's this doujinshi RPG, based on dating sims. It incorporates the Call of Cthulhu insanity rules. Yes - high-school romance can drive you literally insane. (You may now cackle evilly.) Sandy Petersen, co-author of CallOfCthulhu, went on to work for id Software; he worked on some of their first-person shooters. Fitting, I guess. -- EricJablow ''Why the past tense?
