Wretched Country Quickstart Released

Wretched Country does for the western genre what Wretched Bastards did for fantasy: it’s an old-school game meant for playing anti-hero characters. The spaghetti western, already referenced as a source of inspiration for the OSR dark-fantasy Wretched Bastards, now takes centre stage. In this Quickstart version, you will find most of the rules (magic and bestiary not included). The full version also features: The Devil’s Country, a western-themed horror scenario about an international film crew travelling to Spain to shoot a movie believed to be cursed and Hellstone, a setting that can be used to run spaghetti, classic or weird west adventures.

2 Months, 3 Games, 3 Scenarios and 3 Sourcebooks

Is it time for some Wretched self-promo? Sure, why not?

We started publishing through The Red Room about two months ago. In two months only we published 3 games, 3 scenarios and 3 sourcebooks (we didn’t plan the 3-3-3 it was just a coincidence). So here’s our stuff:

Wretched Bastards: play anti-heroes in the dark-fantasy, low-magic world of Antillia in this OSR RPG.

Daughters of Darkness, Sound of Madness and The Seven Bastards: three scenarios by Silvia Clemente, set in the World of Bastards.

Scurvy: explore Husks Key and face the wretched crew of Captain Barbafuchsia.

Furry Bastards: anthropomorphic mutant races for Wretched Bastards.

Deviants & Dirty Deeds: pregens and plot-hooks for Wretched Bastards, by Joe Coombs.

Wretched Country: a western-themed OSR role-playing game, especially adequate for spaghetti western-styled campaign.

Wretched Époque: investigate supernatural, paranormal or mundane mysteries in Paris of the Belle Époque (or just be a wretched villain and be pursued by others).
