Atmospheric horror, deadpan comedy, and the working-class weird. We publish games where the horror is real, the comedy is real, and they are the same thing.
A tabletop roleplaying game about night-shift work at a gas station that shouldn't really exist.
Odd Hours is a tabletop roleplaying game about ordinary people working extraordinary (and extraordinarily underpaid) jobs at a gas station that shouldn't really exist, in a town that refuses to acknowledge what it is and what it's become.
You are not heroes. You are shift workers. You have a register to reconcile, a mop that smells wrong (and is getting worse), a manager who hasn't been seen since Thursday, and a customer in aisle three who, you are fairly certain, does not have a shadow. You'll deal with all of it before your shift ends. Probably.
This is a game about deadpan endurance in the face of cosmic absurdity. The horror is real. The comedy is real. They are the same thing.
A substantially expanded edition with new backgrounds, an expanded bestiary, and the full town of Corrow developed in detail. Crowdfunding later this year.
Get Notified at LaunchRoute 9 Games is an independent tabletop publisher founded in 2026. Our games have a specific tonal commitment: deadpan endurance in the face of cosmic absurdity, set in places most people drive past without stopping.
If that sounds like the kind of game you'd play, you're in the right place.
