- Play as both Alice and Lenz, two contrasting characters. Each possesses unique mechanics, motivations, and goals.
- As Alice you will utilize Disciplines - supernatural abilities that subtly sway or forcibly dominate others to fulfill your ambitions.
- Take advantage of Lenz’s Alchemical prowess and brew potions to unlock new dialogue options and shape conversations your way.
- Take control over the ever-shifting political map of Berlin by carefully manipulating the five warring factions.
- Manage your Hunger by satisfying the ever-present bloodthirst, but be careful to maintain The Masquerade and keep the mortals unaware of your existence.
- Immerse yourself in Berlin’s grimy underbelly, where junkie-riddled gang hideouts contrast sharply with grandiose opera houses and glistening hotel penthouses.
