Monster of the week

Hey there everyone i'm here to probe for interest in a game called Monster of the Week! It is a game powered by the Apocalypse world system, a rules lite narrative first kind of system, and is very reminiscent of shows like X-file, Buffy the vampire slayer, and supernatural.

The premise is simple! A group of people are thrust into a situation that ends with either them or the monster of the week dead or scurrying for the safety of a dark hole. Usually games are run like episodes: each episode has its own monster but there is usually an over arching plot that carries the game.

If anyone is interested I would be glad to DM this game!

Tentatively interested. Depends on the specifics of the game and setting.

In reply to liblarva (msg # 4):

Well the game itself is a horror-lite action rpg. I intend to run it in a fairly tame way so there is no overly grotesque monsters or gore.

As for the setting, I had planned on a forested mountain with two towns settled at its base. One of them is a tourtist trap while the other is more small town America. This location would be the focal point for most if not all of the story.
