The short answer is: Maybe. Looking at the numbers, the situation is looking pretty bleak unless something changes soon. As of now, our sales have primarily been through Drivethru, which accounted for almost ten times more than both Big Geek Emporium and Lulu combined. That’s a significant difference.

But we haven’t lost hope just yet. We can still turn this around. The woke parasites over at Drivethru take 35% of the publisher’s profits This has resulted in our total profit being almost halved each month, and that’s quite a lot. As you know Big Geek Emporium takes a much smaller share. Drivethru has happily taken our money to sell our “problematic content” for almost a year, but now we can shift our focus to Big Geek Emporium and Lulu. If even half of our previous customers start buying from these two retailers, we can keep the Red Room alive and thriving.

We’ve considered creating our own store, but it doesn’t make much sense now. If people aren’t willing to switch from Drivethru to Big Geek Emporium, they’re unlikely to purchase from our website. So, we’re sticking with what we have and trying to promote even more than before.

If you want to help us keep the Red Room (and the entire Wretchedverse) alive, it’s quite simple. Just buy from one of our other retailers. All of our paper books are at Lulu.com, where the printing quality is significantly better than at Drivethru. The price is only slightly higher than at DTRPG, so you’re not really losing anything by purchasing hard copies from Lulu. All of our digital books are available at Big Geek Emporium at the same price they were on Drivethru, so there’s no reason not to buy from there.

But there are other ways to help us as well. If you’re feeling generous, you can donate to our Ko-Fi page to help us cover the expenses of maintaining our website and YouTube channel. However, we’d prefer to have you as customers rather than patrons (we don’t even have a Patreon account, we were also expelled from there for being very naughty people, but that’s beside the point now).

One of the most important ways you can help us is to spread the word about our products. Share our posts and videos on social media, leave reviews at Big Geek Emporium, and if you have a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel, please review our products. It may not seem like much, but it’ll make a world of difference to us.

Thank you for supporting the Red Room and the Wretchedverse.

Stay Wretched!

This is a subject that keeps coming up when talking about Wretched games. Our answer is: Of course! However, the answer must be given the proper context. What are we exactly talking about when we say Wretched games should contain sex? Are we expecting Game Master and players to describe romantic sex encounters in a Harlequin novel style?

“Suddenly, the door opened, and he stepped inside. Aria’s heart leapt with joy, and she felt a wave of heat rising up within her. He was even more handsome than she remembered, dressed in a fine velvet tunic and breeches. His eyes were dark and intense, and they seemed to look right through her. The bard stepped forward and took her hands in his. His touch was electrifying, and Aria felt her skin tingle wherever he touched her. He leaned in close, his breath warm against her neck, and she felt a shiver of pleasure run through her. The bard’s hands slid up her arms, his fingertips caressing her skin as he moved. His lips were soft and gentle, their kiss passionate and deep. Aria felt herself melting in his embrace, and the heat between them seemed to grow and intensify. His hands moved down her body, his touch exploring every curve and inch of her. He cupped her breasts in his hands, and she gasped at the feeling. His hands moved lower, and Aria felt a wave of pleasure wash over her as he teased her sensitive areas.”

FUCK NO! By the way, we loathe this kind of thing so much; we had GPT write it. This unwretchedness incarnate! Leave that shit to theatre kids and sparkletrolls in general.

Now this we approve of:

Miguel (as Bela Tusa, the Dwarf): I want to spend the night with a hooker
Sílvia (as the GM): Right. One of them accepts dwarves, but she charges double.
Miguel: Fine, I’ll paydouble.
Sílvia: OK, so you spend the night wi…
Miguel: Wait, wait, I’m not finished. She does anal sex, right?
Sílvia: She does, but not with dwarves.
Miguel: Fucking racist! I paid her double, she must…
Sílvia: No, that was the price for regular sex, she won’t do anything else with you.
Miguel: I’ll threaten her, then. If she doesn’t do it, I’ll force her.
Sílvia: When threatened, she gets scared and starts screaming. She will alert the guards.
Miguel: I pick up my axe and get ready for some fun. Meanwhile, I warn her: We aren’t done yet, let me just deal with those fuckers.

I hope this clears any doubts about what role sex should play in Wretched games. No romance and no descriptions, only action is expected!
