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.

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!

Shadows Over Olisipo Updated
Following the RPGPundit’s recent review of Shadows over Olisipo, we’ve updated the book: corrected typos, replaced AI illustrations with period public-domain art, and added bookmarks. The new digital edition (v1.2) is now available at the Red Room store; the print edition will be updated shortly. You can check out the review here.
New release: Grindhouse Red
Grindhouse Red is the MicroRed version of Wretchploitation, one of our earliest Wretched titles. It plunges players into the gritty, blood-soaked underbelly of 1970s exploitation cinema, using MicroRed, a streamlined iteration of the Red rules, an OSR-compatible system by the Red Room. With a cover by Warghoul (Lore Hammer Forge), and interior art (mostly) from public domain, Grindhouse Red is a love letter to the sleazy, blood-soaked world of exploitation cinema—films that thrived on sex, violence, drugs, and every taboo from the 1960s to the 1980s. It’s FREE for those who purchased Wretchploitation from our store and… you can play a LITERAL NAZI! What’s not to love?
The Devil Beneath (free release)
The Devil Beneath (first prize in the Red Room game jam) is now available for free at the store. Go check it out:
RED Chad Bestboys (free release)
We have a new free release at the store: RED Chad Bestboys, a lighthearted alternative rules supplement for the Red RPG by Kris Villarosa, created as an entry for the Red Room Holidays Game Jam ’24. The cover alone should be worth the download!
