Vampire: The Masquerade – Vendetta going live on Kickstarter on March 10!
A competitive card game where up to 5 players take control of one of the vampire clans of the Camarilla and try to conquer the role of Prince of Chicago!
“In Vampire: The Masquerade – Vendetta, each player leads one of the Camarilla clans of Chicago (Brujah, Gangrel, Malkavian, Nosferatu, Toreador, Tremere, Ventrue), determined to gain enough influence to seize control of the city and become its new Prince.
Over three rounds, players will play cards and blood at several locations to gain control of powerful allies, both human and Kindred, earning influence and unlocking their special abilities. Players will also gain new cards at the beginning of each round, gaining new abilities to surprise their opponents.
A game designed by Charlie Cleveland (Subnautica) and Bruno Faidutti (Citadels).
Each player has their own deck of cards which include powers and disciplines typical of their clan. You start the game with 3 cards, but you acquire 1 new card at the beginning of each round, increasing the special effects at your disposal over time.
While playing, you will get to know the powers and abilities of your opponents, but they’ll do the same with you… and you can never know what new tricks they may have added to their arsenal since your last encounter!
You play your cards, one at a time, at one of the locations available. You can play cards either face up (to openly show your intentions) or face down (to hide your strategy and/or deceive your opponents with a clever bluff).
You can also spend blood to increase your strength during the upcoming fight, but beware: if you run out of blood, you will go into a frenzy and be forced to feed upon one of your hard-earned allies!
You obtain Influence points by winning conflicts at the various locations and taking control of allies over the course of 3 rounds. At the end of the third round, the vampire with the most influence is the winner…and the new Prince of Chicago!
You can also join a giveaway contest to win one of 3 copies of the game… check at the bottom of our launch page by clicking on the button below!”
