High School Cthulhu is a role-playing game published by Gear Games that draws its inspiration from the teen drama series of the 90s—from Beverly Hills 90210 and Dawson’s Creek to the action & horror classics of the genre like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Roswell.
Available for purchase on the publisher's websiteTEEN DRAMA - The protagonists of this game are going through quite the delicate phase of their existence, neither children nor yet adults. The generational conflict rages on in the process of building a new identity, and the early forays in the world of love and sex are powers not easily denied, with tools in the game to make these aspects of teenage life engaging and fun.

CTHULHU MYTHOS - The whole setting, down to the very town, for the adventures of our students, is steeped in the lore of the novels by Howard Phillips Lovecraft. Most of the characters and locales in this book are inspired by the works of the author of Providence, and our take on what Innsmouth could have been like in the Nineties is still strongly connected to the so-called Cthulhu Mythos.
THE 90's - If you downloaded even just one song from Napster in your life, you already know everything there is to know. The world is about to change forever; cellular phones are extremely expensive bricks, and the internet is still nascent and so slow we lack the words to explain it.
