Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
A Witcher-style vampire RPG with excellent story, atmosphere and quests, held back by clunky combat, repetition and technical issues. Skip it if you hate time limits or jank.
Great for
Witcher and Bloodlines fans who want a narrative-heavy dark fantasy RPG with meaningful choices
Main risk
Clunky lock-on combat, repetition and UE5 performance problems for a $70 price
