Ratings and reviews

As a big world of darkness guy. I had a lot of fun with the game it has a stellar atmosphere , some crafty writing and standout characters . The story has its moments but was undercooked in some noticable ways and left me wanting more and not in the good way. I hated the time limit, a cheap attempt at replay value next time create a story where your choices matter.

As a long-time player of VtM LARP, I am impressed and distressed at this game at the same time. While intriguing storyline is definitely there, and I haven't played all possible outcomes, this storyline is too short and outlandish. For example the breach of the Masquerade that happen in this game would have been felt in every major influence web. This game makes it seem easy to get away with anything. Let alone allowing another clan to keep your Fledgling is incomprehensible. I feel ripped off.

Plays more like an e-book than a game, with very little choice but lots of dialogue to read. Lovely artwork with a few visual hiccups, could use some more ambient tracks, but overall, ok. Feels a little railroad-y at most pivotal moments. Not a ton of choice for characters (Tor, Bru and Ven), and only one portrait per clan. Has a lot of potential, and even if the story drags from time to time, it's still very well written. Hope was a fun twist on an old trope.
