Wretched RPG is a free, OSR-compatible core system that brings an emphasis on gritty, anti-heroic adventures inspired by cult movie genres. Designed to be played with its own simple rules or adapted to any d20-based system, Wretched settings like Wretched Bastards, Wretched Darkness, and Wretched Country offer dark fantasy, urban horror, and spaghetti western experiences. Other settings, like Wretched Époque, take you into the grim streets of 19th-century Paris, while Wretched New Flesh plunges players into a dystopian cyberpunk future. For space-faring horror and action, Wretched Space and Orbital Decay provide high-stakes sci-fi drama, while Wretched Apocalypse explores post-apocalyptic survival. From the superhero grit of Wretched Vigilantes to the supernatural mysteries of Wretched Interbellum, each game offers a unique world, rich with dark intrigue and moral ambiguity. The game prioritizes fast, easy-to-run settings that are perfect for one-shots at conventions, game stores, or your home table. With a focus on the morally ambiguous and a nod to 1970s and 1980s cinema and low-budget charm, Wretched invites players to embrace its “Spaghettipunk” style for short but unforgettable gaming sessions.
