Editing Trail of Cthulhu (section)

===Gameplay===
Similar to CoC, gameplay consists principally of following a trail of clues and trying to survive confrontations with the dark forces arrayed against you.
The game presents both a '' 'Purist' '' and a '' 'Pulp' '' game style.
The '' 'Purist' '' game-type focuses on a bleaker Mythos, where the pursuit of the truth dooms both the investigator and innocent bystanders with an unpreventable horror and is geared towards a more traditional gameplay.
The '' 'Pulp' '' game-type intends for the intrepid investigators to have a fighting chance against the Mythos.
The concepts are later used in the book to allow certain rules to be added or excluded to achieve whatever feel [[GM|The Keeper]] is aiming for.
Of course, one can also try to achieve a balance between the two styles of play.
