Ratings and reviews

In this story you are not a vampire at all but the town itself has a vampire infestation. The biggest issue with this story is that the ending is less developed than the beginning and some stats are far less useful than others. The characters are all distinct and there are multiple endings which leads to decent replayability. Even with the less developed ending this story is one of the better choice games on here. It's a well written short story with interesting characters.

It's okay, but if I could get a refund I would. Definitely not worth the money after I've finished it a few times. It starts off fun and interesting and draws you in with the mystery and the set up, but it's disappointing in how it sort of deflates at the end. Too many stats, not enough points, some stats are useless and your choices suffer despite trying to play into your strengths. Plot points of interest aren't explored further and it's disappointing. Good writing tho, poor construction.

It has a great first act setting up the characters, your situation, and the various plot threads. The second and third act are where it falls short. Where it should be a slow burn of living life, exploring the corruption of the town, and learning about vampires (while dealing with the various things that happen); instead everything just kind of happens. In some instances for no reason other than to move the plot along. And that's to say nothing of the various spelling/grammar errors.
