About the Game

In Werewolf: The Gloaming Malice, you aren't just a witness—you’re the Hunter. Scour the fortress for gear, interacting with villagers for clues, and unmask the hidden werewolves. Every night is a battle for survival, trust no one, uncover the lies, and kill the wolves before they take over the fortress.

Things you should always bear in mind in the Shadow Fortress:

Communication is Key!

The best way to know what is happening in the Shadow Fortress is by communication. Villagers may see or hear something you did not…Kindness will reward you, just remember… you should trust no one.

Pay Attention to Details

The most vital secrets are often buried in the dark. Use Search Mode to sharpen your senses and uncover what others miss. Keep your eyes open —missing a detail could cause disastrous outcomes.

Collect items and solve the puzzle

Don’t just listen—investigate. Collect, Analyze, and Link. Every item you scavenge and every puzzle you solve shifts the power dynamic. Luck only is not enough to keep you alive, your ability to unravel the truth matters the most.

Craft items

Sometimes raw materials alone will not save you. You need to shape and refine it. Only through careful crafting can one forge those materials into something greater and reveal the biggest lie in the fortress.

The Final Strike

If you raise your sword towards a wolf, a Sword Duel is inevitable. There is no return-you either win or die. Gather your evidence, sharpen your steel, and ensure your accusations are backed by proof, and most importantly… think twice before you act.

The second is known as the Final Volley: a single, perfectly timed shot of silver—miss the moment, and the werewolf vanishes into the dark, beyond your reach.
