''[[https://www.twitter.com/lagunacreekmfrp Laguna Creek]]'' is a Discord-based multifandom horror RPG[[PlayByPostGame]] that is [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/UsefulNotes/PoweredByTheApocalypse Powered By The Apocalypse]]. (More specifically, it uses the ''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/TabletopGame/MonsterOfTheWeek Monster Of The Week]]'' take on its systems.) Taking place on an alternate modern-day Earth, players will find themselves in a town plagued with mysterious supernatural happenings and working with non-player characters to find a way back home. It's speculated that the way out is through finding the root of all of the problems, but with the lack of a structured government or police force it makes finding the resources to do such ''very'' difficult.

* KillerGameMaster: Regardless of the fact that one of the main rules stated in ''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/TabletopGame/MonsterOfTheWeek Monster Of The Week]]'' is being on the side of the hunters, the GM seems to [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem play by his own rules]] and doesn't always adhere to this.
* {{Metaplot}}: Much to the player's chagrin doing their damnedest to [[StringTheory figure out what the hell is going on.]]

* {{Railroading}}: Averted. Laguna Creek is designed to encourage following loose ends through sporadic mini-sessions and [[GreatBigLibraryOfEverything the library system]] that allows players to look for hints when the GM is unavailable.
* SchrodingersGun: The plot seems to bend ''a lot'' according to the player's actions.

!!''Laguna Creek'' provides examples of:
* AngelsDevilsAndSquid: [[spoiler: To be lightly [[SubvertedTrope subverted]], but only because GodAndSatanAreBothJerks.]]
* AnyoneCanDie: Even the most important characters, if players aren't careful enough.
* CloseKnitCommunity: To the point of overprotectiveness at times. Most characters are distrustful of the players due to their non-specific otherworldly origins.
* FantasyKitchenSink: Expected for MonsterOfTheWeek style stories, [[spoiler: but that doesn't mean [[TheConspiracy they aren't all connected.]]]]
* InformedSmallTown: Laguna Creek is slated to be a small town of around 9,000 people, but despite all of this it has its own radio station, crime museum, multiple serial killers, two highly respected universities, and the headquarters of one of the most revered fashion design companies in the world.
* MoodWhiplash: Yes, people are dying, but it's a small town. There's always something weird happening that's PlayedForLaughs. Like the Halloween party that resulted in a shark thrown off a cliff.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: [[spoiler: [[ReligiousHorror To be unveiled over time.]]]]
* PoliceAreUseless: As if that wasn't obvious.
* UrbanFantasy: Laguna Creek ''is'' taking place in a modern day Earth, albeit only a few current events are being reflected in roleplay.
* WackyCollege: The arts school is blatantly haunted with some fairly quirky teachers, and the STEM school seems to have somewhat morally bankrupt teachers and student body. So... [[LesserOfTwoEvils pick your poison.]]
* WorldOfWeirdness: Implied, but not quite fully explored.
* YourMagicsNoGoodHere: Players are stripped of all powers from their previous world, and (unless there is a move in a playbook that is identical to their powers in canon) there is no way to get them back.
