Now available at the Red Room store, Big Geek Emporium and Giant Slayer Games. Wretched New Flesh transports players to a dystopian future inspired by the dark visions of William S. Burroughs, David Cronenberg, William Gibson, JG Ballard and Clive Barker. This surreal future-noir roleplaying game setting combines elements of cyberpunk, biopunk, and psi punk to create a nightmarish world where libertarianism and unchecked corporate power lead to decadence, violence, and oppression. 648 pages stock full of new setting information and expanded rules (hacking, forensics, investigation, city building, etc). It will be available soon in paperback/ hardcover at Luludotcom.
Wretched Minions Volume 1: Goblins (RELEASED)
The goblin, perhaps the quintessential minion in fantasy lore. Known for their diminutive size, exaggerated features, and unquenchable work ethic, goblins take centre stage in the first volume in the Wretched Minions bestiary series, by Michael L Straus. While often dismissed as dumb or silly, goblins possess a clever industriousness that makes them perfectly suited as cheap labour for nefarious overlords. This is ML Straus‘s first volume in a series of Wretched Minions for the Red Room. You can purchase it at our store, Big Geek Emporium or Giant Slayer Games.
Vice: Sandcove Under Fire RELEASED
This is an updated and expanded version of Vice: Sandcove Gets the Blues.
