CthulhuTech is a science-fiction and horror roleplaying game created by Wildfire LLC and published by Catalyst Game Labs that combines elements of the Cthulhu Mythos with anime-style mecha, horror, magic and futuristic action. The setting is Earth in the year 2085 during a world-wide conflict known as the Aeon War, wherein the planet has been invaded twice: once by a black-skinned manufactured alien race known as the Nazzadi who are derived from humans and who join forces with them, and then a second time by the Mi-Go, an advanced alien civilization seemingly bent on the enslavement of humanity. Aside from these conflicts, the game focuses on other factions, such as ancient cults like the Esoteric Order of Dagon that are running amok across the planet and the eldritch horrors that are rising to destroy the world. The game uses a proprietary ten-sided die (d10) system titled "Framewerk".
