King of Chicago is a set of two adventures published by Chaosium in 1994 for the horror role-playing game Call of Cthulhu , itself based on the stories of H.P. Lovecraft.
King of Chicago contains two adventure that both feature gang wars from the 1920s:
Chaosium first published the horror roleplaying game Call of Cthulhu in 1981, and subsequently released several editions and many adventures for it. King of Chicago is a 63-page softcover book that was designed by Ugo Bardi, Tadashi Ehara, Lynn Willis (credited as "L.N. Isynwill"), and Gary Sumpter, with interior art by Earl Geier, and cover art by Charlie Krank. [2]
In Issue 214 of Dragon (February 1995), Rick Swan admired the "Smart stories [and] authentic atmosphere." But he noted that as a result of too many gangsters, there were not many monsters. [1]
