''Hulks and Horrors'' is a TabletopRPG made by John S. Berry III. It is a SpaceOpera setting made using the Open Gaming License 1.0a rules system. It is available for download as a free PDF at online game stores.

The game's premise is that when humanity finally reached the stars, they found that a plague had wiped out most other sentient races. Now it's up to the players to investigate ruins and [[TitleDrop abandoned ships, facing the horrors]] in them, in order to find great rewards.

You can play as four human character character classes: Pilot, Scientist, Soldier, Psyker (psionic) and three alien races (also treated as character classes): the Sl'ettexik (hovering squids), the Red-Red-Chartreuse-Blue (a race of giant one-cell organisms, with a color-based language, called Omega Reticulans by everybody else) and the Urr-A-Arfruf (Bearmen.)

The game allows for a wide array of World Building, from designing your own devices, spacships and monsters to planets and star-systems. It includes dozens of ready-made monsters and artifacts as well.
