Creatures of the Wastelands: Random Encounters contains 15 random encounter tables designed for use with post-apocalyptic role-playing games like the  Mutant Future retroclone of classic Gamma World. These tables incorporate monsters primarily from the Skirmisher Publishing book Creatures of the Wastelands: A Menagerie of Mutants & Mutations, along with some from Skirmisher's Creatures of the Wastelands: Mutational Evolution and a handful from the Mutant Future core rulebook. It is fully compatible with Goblinoid Games' Mutant Future, as well as Labyrinth Lord and other games that use the familiar and easy-to-use "Basic D&D" rules.
