Through a huge reader poll, this month's Tabletop Gaming Magazine features a list of the "150 best board, card, roleplaying and miniatures games ever made". 

In the count-down of the "Greatest Games Ever Made"—covering every facet of tabletop gaming from Chess and Monopoly to Exploding Kittens—we were delighted to see two Chaosium roleplaying games in the Top Ten: Call of Cthulhu at #3, and RuneQuest at #9.

Greg Stafford's King Arthur Pendragon was also voted at #75.

Acclaimed designer Mark Morrison (Horror on the Orient Express, Reign of Terror etc) is featured in the entry about Call of Cthulhu: in fact it says "he worships the game you'll go crazy for" 

Mark's take on the game's enduring popularity?—"30 years later the game has lost none of its power because when we play we gather to tell stories in the dark."

Tabletop Gaming is available from newsagents in the UK and elsewhere, and on line at the Tabletop Gaming magazine website.
