Don’t get me wrong - I love me some VtM, but I was just curious if there are any other good vampire/werewolf-centric ttrpg’s out there?
Haven’t played em, but Eat the Reich looked interesting. Vampires killing nazis. I remember reading something a while back called World of Future Darkness, which mixed Cyberpunk and Vampire the masquerade, however I’m not sure if that was ever expanded upon or which system it used.
I was working on a module for Savage Worlds that was basically World of Future Darkness with simplified lore and adapted to SWADE, but I never ended up running it to test it since I’m pretty sure the supernatural ancestries and cybernetics will need some work. If you’re interested DM me and I’ll give you the pdf.
Eat the Reich of course.
That looks fucking awesome. Bummer the pink version is sold out, gotta wait a bit I guess hehe
afaik the pink version was the first print run and the green one is the second. A dude at the game fair at their booth told me that… so I’m not sure if there will be pink ones again.
Hmm well the website has a “remind me when it’s available again” button. If I don’t hear back in a month, I guess I will settle for the green one.
I love the concept of Eat The Reich
I love the design of the physical book.
I started reading the actual book and it felt like the game designers were chastising me because I could potentially play the game in a different way than they envisioned it.
I did not get that vibe at all. They do make it clear what the game is, but in the back they give you the tools and some ideas to expound upon it.
Well, technically there’s Vampire: The Requiem. It’s very similar, but not in the exact same universe. Some of the names are reused, but there’s no canon metaplot, and many details are changed. I personally liked it a lot, but I think it’s less popular than Masquerade.
If you want to roll your own setting, I bet there are generic systems that would work. Fate is my go-to, and I can see how it would work. (Probably a stress track for hunger, some consequence boxes for becoming a monster)
I’ve been toying around with the idea of a vampire-themed setting using the Cypher System (MY go-to!). I’ve got tons of ideas…it’ll be a fun writing exercise, if nothing else! :)
Rifts: Vampire Kingdoms
Fun if you are into Rifts, and like your vampires to actually be an alien entity.
Dresden Files RPG, vampires and werewolves are a pretty big part of the setting if not exactly the focus.
quite fond of this one by Craig Campbell
Sounds like ‘What We Do in Shadows - the TTRPG’ (which isn’t terrible!). =)
I’ve never actually played it, but Night’s Black Agents is a cold war style spy thriller where it’s you versus Vampires. Based on Gumshoe so it’s more more investigative than action I believe.

Buffy? The system’s not great (not awful, just… mid), but we did have a lot of fun playing it
