The universe World of darkness things are not going my way. Over the past few years, her fans have received only a couple of average visual novels about vampires, development Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines accompanied by scandals and transfers, and Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood, which we will be reviewing today, looked attractive exclusively in the announcement trailers.
The events of Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood take place in a pack of hereditary wolves who honor the goddess of the Earth Gaia and act as shahids of the animal Greenpeace. The mighty Garu Kahal must protect his family and nature from the hostile Endron Corporation. Some of his furry kindred have gone to the dark side, and the warriors he has to deal with are equipped with weapons with silver bullets and exoskeletons.
Since the game is extremely linear, most of the passage you in the role of Kahal will have to wade past the cameras and through the monotonous labyrinths of premises, sometimes changing their shape or engaging in bloody fights with guards armed to the teeth. Naturally, stealth is a priority method of passing, so you need to quietly sneak through blind spots, eliminating rare enemies in close combat or with the help of a crossbow.
However, no one will give you the opportunity to remove the corpses of eliminated enemies from your field of vision. They will remain in plain sight without arousing suspicion. Periodically, you can transform into a wolf and squeeze into narrow ventilation passages. Sometimes you will have to use special vision to see enemies behind the wall or the control system of the next combination lock.
If detected, Kahal goes into combat mode, completely transforming into a werewolf. Here, with the help of teeth, claws and special techniques, the main character can tear enemies apart, finish off and throw them against the walls, and as the rage fills, the developers use energy to restore health or deliver powerful blows. All this reminds of a long forgotten game about Wolverine – X-Men Origins: Wolverine…
Usually, after a bloody and brutal battle, the white walls of the clean rooms of the corporation are covered with blood and torn bodies, and the main character calmly moves to the next location. And this is perhaps one of the main advantages of the game.
