WYRD
Welcome to the city of the foolish and damned
What Is WYRD?
WYRD is a solo tabletop game with light roleplaying elements and rogue-like elements. You take on the role of an adventurer exploring a cursed city full of evil beings and dangerous encounters. You are drawn to this place in search of the power of the wyrd and what the center of the city holds. Wyrd is wielded through stones, each holding a new power for its owner to harness.
Throughout your time in WYRD, you will encounter new enemies, explore a variety of locations, uncover mysteries of the city, and grow in strength. See if you can reach the heart of this wretched city.
How It's Played
WYRD is Carved by RUNE, meaning it is based on the rules found in the RUNE TTRPG by Gila RPGs. WYRD expands and adapts those rules to create an exciting roguelike experience.
Players will work their way through the twisting labyrinth of the city by drawing cards from a deck. The combination of cards tells them what kind of encounters and dangers they encounter, one room after another. Each run through WYRD is unique, and while the adventurer will surely fall, their next journey into the city will be different than the last.
Combat uses the unique system from the RUNE TTRPG, featuring deadly tactical fights full of strategic decision making. Rolling a pool of dice, the player must decide how to spend those dice to best adapt to the enemies that are closing in on them. When is the best time to take a defensive posture, and when do you push for the kill?
Carved By RUNE
WYRD is Carved By RUNE. It is entirely a standalone product, and does not require RUNE in order to play. WYRD was written and designed by Cody Barr of Sasquatch Games, and is being published in print format by Gila RPGs.
If you're familiar with RUNE and want to know what's different in WYRD, here's a breakdown:
- A modified equipment system providing single action on each equipped item.
- Companions that follow you into the depths of the cursed city.
- A shared dice pool using the total combined Stamina for the party. The player can assign the d6 results to any character, in any combination, allowing a higher tactical experience for gameplay.
- Movement tied to armour for the player characters. Heavier armour means you are moving a lot slower but blocking more damage, while lighter armoured counterparts are moving fast and taking full harm their way.
- A d66 collection of loot found from winning Combat, usable by your player character.

At Third Eye, we ship thousands of comics every week, and we know condition matters. Whether you're reading, collecting, or grading, we want you to feel confident when a Third Eye package arrives.
This policy outlines our standard for new release and shipped comics, and the industry-standard guidelines we follow.
OUR STANDARD
Books without a stated grade will be offered as Near Mint 9.4 or better. We do not guarantee 9.8 condition on any book unless specifically noted.
We use industry-standard grading guidelines from:
- CBCS Comic Grading Scale
- Overstreet Comic Grading Standards
- CGC grading standards
If you're new to comic grading, the resources above are a great place to start.
WHY WE DON'T GUARANTEE 9.8
Modern comic printing is an imperfect process. Books are printed in massive
runs, bound at high speed, and shipped in bulk to retailers. Even brand
new books off the truck will exhibit minor production characteristics,
and that's normal, and consistent with industry standards across every
retailer.
A 9.8 grade represents near-perfection, and the reality is that not every printed book qualifies for that grade no matter where you buy it from.
We can absolutely commit to NM 9.4 or better. We cannot commit to 9.8 on every book, because that's not how comics are made.
WHAT QUALIFIES AS NM 9.4
Per industry standards, a book may exhibit the following minor characteristics and still grade as Near Mint 9.4, as long as there's no accumulation of defects:
Bindery characteristics:
- Minor to moderate corner tears
- White edges along the spine (common on most modern printings)
- Covers slightly offset from interior pages (common on cardstock covers)
Printing characteristics:
- Slight color rub on back covers
- Small paper wrinkles present from the paper roll prior to printing
- Wavy paper texture from the printing process
Spine characteristics:
- 2-3 small color-breaking spine ticks
- Minor non-color-breaking spine dings
These are normal modern production characteristics, not damage from handling or shipping. They are present on books across the industry, regardless
of retailer.
OUR RETURN & EXCHANGE POLICY
We do not accept returns or exchanges on books that meet our NM 9.4 or better standard.
We will replace or refund:
- Books damaged during shipping (clear shipping damage, not pre-existing print characteristics)
- Books that fall below NM 9.4 standard (significant spine damage, major creasing, tears, etc.)
- Wrong cover or wrong issue shipped
For premium variants (1:25, 1:50, 1:100, 1:250, 1:500 incentive covers, signed editions, exclusive variants), we apply enhanced QC during pull and packing. If a premium variant arrives outside our standard, contact us within 7 days of delivery and we will work with you on a replacement.
