Step Into a World of Lurking Horror and Cosmic Interference

Into the Odd Remastered is a rules-light, flavor heavy roleplaying game of industrial horror and cosmic strangeness. This new edition revisits Industrial Bastionland, giving the original game a lavish hardback, full color restoration with expanded content.

Free League Publishing officially released the long-awaited, remastered version of the acclaimed indie weird fantasy tabletop roleplaying game Into the OddInto the Odd Remastered is now available in the Free League webshop, in well-stocked hobby stores across the world, and in PDF format on DrivethruRPG.

Written by Chris McDowall (Electric Bastionland) and with graphic design by Johan Nohr (MÖRK BORG), Into the Odd Remastered is published by the Free League Workshop, Free League Publishing’s sublabel for carefully selected externally developed games.

What’s Inside?
  • Fast Character Creation —  Roll an explorer in minutes, grabbing a starter package of flavourful equipment and starting your expedition.
  • Minimalist Rules — An ultralite system that keeps the game moving forward. Combat is fast and decisive, with every turn counting.
  • Strange Things — Monsters are horrific hazards, not opponents to be fought for sport. Arcana are weird artifacts that each carry a unique ability, from firing portals to attracting bones like a magnet.
  • Return to the Iron Coral — The strange expedition location from the original game has tripled in size, now sprawling over three levels. The surrounding Fallen Marsh now hides four mini-dungeons in its 24 hexes. In the North, the desperate port of Hopesend welcomes adventurous travellers looking to go further.
  • The Expanded Oddpendium — 26 pages of modules and random tables to help you flesh out the world. Roll to create weird creatures, find the best shortcut across town, and find out what happens when you “eat the stuff”.
Bastion is the only city that matters. In its industrial age, it sits as the smoke-shrouded hub of mankind, surrounded by a world of lurking horrors and cosmic interference. The Underground spreads beneath our feet and the stars loom above.
Into the Odd Is a Beautifully Self-Cannibalizing RPG Built on Bodies
“Easy to learn, dangerously fun to play, Into the Odd is Old-School Roleplaying and dungeon-crawling taken to its extreme imperialist conclusion.”
