Arkham Horror
Do spells that damage monsters need the monster to be engaged with you?
Players agree on this reading; the spell text decides each case.

No — engagement is part of the attack action. A spell that isn't an attack action, such as Shriveling, doesn't make you engage the monster, and the spell's own text decides which monsters it can target.
