Some of Them
A downloadable trauma simulator
Prelude
The Embrace that welcomes one to vampiric society isn’t always glamorous, poetic, or erotic. Often, it’s not even planned. Violent, it rips one off their mortal lives.
Humans are social creatures. What ties will you leave behind?
"Some of Them" is a horror interactive fiction game loosely based on Vampire the Masquerade 5th Edition that's still in development, where your choice drives the narrative. Immerse yourself in everything you'd expect from a traditional text-based game, combined with beautiful, atmospheric illustrations for a brand new level of immersion.
Synopsis
November 1986, Soviet Union.
A punk rock band’s presence and a party that lasted till the crack of dawn surely stirred up a rural town’s sleepy days leading up to winter. It’s the 80s, after all. You were supposed to have the time of your life at the party... yet you woke up the morning after in the bar's closet with a pounding headache, unable to recall what happened the day before.
“Some of Them” explores the 24 hours of Oleg, a seemingly normal mortal man who may not have realized last night’s party was more than life-changing. But when he finally did so, what did it all have in store for him? Time is of the essence.
