Cell of Cthulhu

  • Activity
  • Entertainment

This three-hour collaborative storytelling experience will harness the immersive setting of the former City Watch House at Old ³Ô¹ÏÍø Gaol to transport players to extraordinary worlds.

As part of ³Ô¹ÏÍø International Games Week, the National Trust has partnered with Masters of Alchemy, ³Ô¹Ï꿉۪s premier provider of theatrical tabletop role-playing game experiences, to present this rare event, with each game played inside a real prison cell.

The authentic setting, dungeon-like atmosphere of Watch House makes this immersive story telling experience, a game like none you’ve played before. Hosted from within the very bowels of the maximum security unit.

Over the course of three hours, players will complete a contained story one shot, guided by the skilled storytelling of professional Game Masters. Players will not only bear witness to the creation of dark worlds of adventure, you will be transported to them.
