[from the back of the book] Stuttgart, 1925. You actually know the city, the motorized Swabian metropolis, the bowl, the industrial city on the Neckar. But something's been ... different lately. The well-known alleys no longer make sense, time goes crazy and bad omens pile up. A shadow from a bygone era is spreading across the streets, and its increasing influence shows how fragile this construct of "reality" actually is. Can the investigators still put a stop to the approaching horror, or is not just Stuttgart in danger of collapsing in the coming storm? Shadow of a City is a Cthulhu campaign in which the investigators will not follow the mythos through several countries, but will encounter the horror on their own doorstep, in their everyday life and in their personal environment. The campaign consists of four adventures.
