Wretched Apocalypse – Second Edition

Wretched Apocalypse is an expansion to the Wretched RPG universe, where the stark and unforgiving realms of post-apocalyptic science fiction come to life. This addition, while a standalone game in its own right, also serves as a versatile tool-set sourcebook, seamlessly integrating with any Wretchedverse game, such as Wretched New Flesh and Wretched Space. Whether you choose to explore it as a gritty, earthbound post-apocalyptic sandbox or venture into the vastness of a space opera universe, Wretched Apocalypse offers a multitude of settings to fuel your imagination. In this second edition, you’ll find additional rules tailored for a post-apocalyptic setting in the Wretched Role-Playing Game. To fully engage with these rules, players will need the core Wretched RPG book, available for free in digital format at the Red Room store, or any other OSR rule set.

The remnants of civilization cling to survival in a world forever changed by cataclysmic events. This expansion to the Wretched RPG universe plunges players into the depths of a post-apocalyptic setting, offering a harrowing blend of survival, exploration, and conflict. In Wretched Apocalypse players embody survivors in a world shattered by war, environmental disasters, and societal collapse. Your characters may come from various backgrounds, each with unique skills and stories shaped by the harsh realities of the new world. From scavengers and raiders to mutants and robotic entities, the range of playable characters offers a variety of experiences.
