Vampyr

Set in London in 1918, Vampyr follows Dr. Jonathan Reid, a newly turned vampire and doctor, as he investigates the supernatural threat behind the city’s epidemic and tries to find a way to save its residents.

Explore the city’s districts, question residents, uncover their secrets and relationships, and take on personal quests. As a doctor, Reid can treat sick people by preparing medicine; the condition of citizens and their communities can change over time.

Fight vampire hunters and other supernatural creatures with weapons and vampiric abilities. Feeding on citizens grants substantial experience for developing Reid, while sparing them means relying more on quests and combat. Decisions affect districts and the story’s outcomes.

Players who enjoy Vampyr often highlight its gloomy 1918 London setting, story, characters, and the personal histories woven through conversations and investigations. The choice between helping citizens and feeding on them is another recurring draw, especially for players who like choices with lasting consequences. Reactions to the combat and pacing are mixed.
