THE END IS NIGH!

The end draws near—but only for our online store. The Red Room itself marches on. By year’s end, all sales will shift to Lulu.com and itch.io. Until then, you may explore our digital catalogue at half price. Use the promo code theend on our website through December 31.

See for yourself what sets the Red Room apart: no safety tools, no fashionable political correctness, no softening of edges—only raw, unapologetic OSR games. From western tales and Gothic terrors to sword-and-sorcery epics, modern thrillers, space opera and biopunk, our Wretched and Red lines span a wide range of genres with a cinematic approach.

Visit the shop while it lasts!

I’m once again asking for… your signal boost!

If you run a YouTube channel, podcast, or blog and want to review one of our titles—or have us on as guests—drop us a line. Even a short mention goes a long way toward getting the Red Room games in front of new GMs and players. Know someone who might be interested? Send them our way. And if that’s not your thing, simply sharing or reposting our announcements on X, Facebook groups, Discord servers, or anywhere you hang out makes a real difference. Every signal you boost helps us keep the lights on and the new books coming, especially now that the online store is about to be shut down. Thanks for anything you can do!

A Red Room Update

As many of you already know, the Red Room will stop selling through its own online store at the end of this year. Since we are now about a month away from that change, it is time to explain what happens next.

From early 2026 onward, our catalogue will be available exclusively through Luludotcom in both digital and print formats. Some digital titles will also continue to be offered on itch.io. The Red Room website itself will remain as it is, so you can still browse our games there as usual and follow the links to Lulu or itch.io to complete your purchase.

You may also have noticed that we have been releasing fewer new titles recently. This does not mean the Red Room is closing when the shop does. The two things are unrelated. The slower release schedule comes from a simple, practical reason: sales have been down for months. Putting out new material when existing titles are not selling well is difficult to justify, and a smaller budget makes it harder to commission new cover and interior art. For that reason, we decided to reduce the pace of new releases.

Instead, we plan to review and update older books and re-release them. As usual, anyone who already owns the original digital version will receive the updated digital file for free. These new editions will also replace AI-generated illustrations with public-domain or commissioned art. This is not because we suddenly turned against AI as a tool, but because AI artwork has become a point of contention and has clearly hurt sales and visibility. At a time when numbers are already low, we cannot afford additional obstacles.

Our hope is that these revised editions will appeal both to long-time and new customers, in digital and print. We also hope that reviewers who have avoided covering books with AI art will now feel more comfortable giving Red Room titles a fair look.
