I like Urban Fantasy and tabletops, but have no idea what PbtA or Urban Shadows is cx
PBtA translates to "Powered by the Apocalypse." They're a loose family of tabletop games inspired by the game Apocalypse World. They're about a zillion of them right now, but in general, each tries to create a certain type of story. So "Monster of the Week" creates a game that feels like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "Masks" create a teenage superhero story, "The Warren" simulates Watership Down, "Brindlewood Bay" is Murder, She Wrote with a hit of Lovecraft, etc.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_by_the_…"Urban Shadows" is one of the more popular games in the family:
magpiegames.com/urban-shadows"Urban Shadows is a game about cities, the people who live in them, and the machines that make them run. It’s a political game, one that challenges preconceptions about conflicts between communities, and asks players to navigate complex identities in a demanding social structure. It is personal and political for mortals and monsters alike."
