Game promise
Hunt the undead. Keep the vigil.
Explore cursed spaces, preserve scarce resources, and prepare each route like every round, relic, and lantern flame could decide the night.
Old-World Horror
Castles, crypts, graveyards, chapel wings, and Transylvanian-style villages define the world — and its vampires grow more dangerous with every stage of transformation.
Prepared Survival
Pistol ammo, wooden stakes, holy water, lantern oil, keys, and relics create deliberate inventory decisions.
Core systems
