If you played Chronicles of Darkness's game, Hunter: the Vigil, this is the 2019 update to it. This game takes a very hard look at the working lives of millenials, late stage capitalism and adds the supernatural into the mix. The game is all about the class of overworked, underpaid individuals who barely scraping by (if at all). They do their day job(s) and take out contracts to kill monsters.
What I do like about it is, how it focuses on the story, rather than the dice rolls. It's all about 'living on the edge' in the worst conditions. It's not a matter of if your character 'retires' from #iHunt. More accurately, it's a matter of when your character finally encounters a 'fair fight.' The monster always wins in a 'fair fight.'
Well worth trying something radically different from many urban fantasy RPGs.
