Against the Monster
Over the course of the game, your monster, your characters , and further details about the context of the monster hunt develop through your answers to the questions. In the end, all main characters answer: When the monster faces you in the end: Do you really attack it? Due to the random selection and order of the questions (you'll typically use around half of them during a 2-hour game) and the huge variability of possible settings, you can play Against the Monster again and again and have a different experience each time. During that introduction, you also choose the rough setting of your monster hunt.
