About the Game

DARKNESS WILL FALL

Life in the city has its ups and downs. Nightmarish traffic, overbearing landlords, demanding bosses, and disappointing paychecks are really just scratching the surface of the shit pile. But, as you're about to find out, there are far worse things lurking in the night streets. 

In Darkness Will Fall, there aren't just blood sucking vampires roaming the moonlit streets but a sick population of vampires called reavers that are unstable, volatile, and ravenously hungry for the blood of their own kind. This wouldn't normally be your problem as an average starry eyed nightclub singer trying to make ends meet but, once a bizarre incident leaves you clinging desperately to your life in a dark alley, a chance encounter with a kind stranger will link your fates and change your life forever. 

THE STORY

Actions have consequences and the consequence of being allowed to keep your life might leave you wishing for death instead. Your instructions are clear - assist in the reaver investigation and provide results that point conclusively to at least one suspect or your life is forfeit. Easy enough, right? 

It would probably be easier if you weren't so distracted by your growing feelings for the vampires you now live with. And it would definitely be easier if they weren't also potential suspects.
