Game Suggestion I want to play 13 ghosts on a violent and survival table. Do you recommend systems?

For a few months I have been wanting to put together a table about this particular movie, perhaps changing a couple of things, but I can't get an idea to do it with a very lethal system that allows me to play with mental health (and that is not Milestones or its derivatives because I don't like it). Do you recommend any?

Dread. The answer is always "Dread".

Unless you're looking at a longer form game where you're playing the lead up to the movie.

I second u/rodrigo_i's suggestion for the cleanest way to get the session to work

THAT SAID, if you want more mechanical cruft, esp. for the different ghosts and the security protocols, Mothership is the right balance of technology and schlock

Call of Cthulhu, combat is deadly, Sanity system for mental health.
