Monster of the Week is a Tabletop RPG designed by Michael Sands and Steve Hickey in 2012 and published on paper by Evil Hat Productions in 2015.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The game is Powered by the Apocalypse and, as the title suggests, inspired by various Monster of the Week series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, Fringe, The Dresden Files, and The X-Files. It is meant to be played episodically, with a group of monster hunter archetypes (a.k.a. playbooks) going after a new boogieman every session.See also the official website. Compare Delta Green.Not to be confused with the trope (which it obviously relies on), or the webcomic (which similarly takes influence from The X-Files).

Arch-Enemy: The Wronged's enemy, as well as the Chosen's "Nemesis" (if they pick one), make for good Myth Arc threats.

Cast of Expies: Many playbooks are overtly inspired by characters from action-horror franchises. For the full roster, see the Characters tab.

comment
Beginner's Luck: Quite literally: new Hunters start out with seven Luck points, and each one allows them to succeed against impossible odds and survive things that would kill a regular human. The rule book even explicitly encourages the Keeper to go extra hard on the players in the first session because they still have "Luck to spare".

Came Back Wrong: It is possible to resurrect a fallen Hunter with a major magic ritual, but there is always a risk of them coming back not quite right—and the higher their Weird score was before death, the higher the chances of that occurring.
