here, there, be monsters! is a rules-lite response to monster-hunting media from the monsters’ point of view. It’s both a love letter and a middle finger to stuff like Hellboy (and the BPRD), the SCP Foundation, the Men in Black, the World of Darkness games and the Urban Fantasy genre in general. It is an explicitly queer, antifascist and anti-capitalist game about the monstrous and the weird, in any flavor you want, not as something to be feared, but to be cherished and protected.
Play as a diverse crew of monstrous, anomalous or just generally odd beings, fighting against those who would use, abuse or even annihilate you. Create and populate your own supernatural underworld, abnormal gang and extra-dimensional haven. Hunt monster hunters! Punch nazi occultists! Eat the rich! Protect each other! Fight back! Here, there, be monsters!

Here there be Monsters is a great game, as a fellow Brazilian trans woman I'm legally obligated to talk about it, but it's also just a very cool game. "Play as the monster" media is very common nowadays, especially due to the works of Guillermo del Toro and other folks cementing the concept of Monsters as being inherently Queer or Neurodiverse. Here There be Monsters is a culmination of everything that's great with this genre.
It's a bit more on the niche side, but HTBM is a phenomenal game, that everyone should check out
