Set in the World of Darkness, Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Purgatory is a captivating blend of fantasy thriller, visual novel, and tabletop RPG.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse — Purgatory invites players to explore the dark side of (in)human nature, uncover supernatural conspiracies, and combat the deadly chaos force known as the Wyrm. Set in the legendary World of Darkness story universe, the game follows Samira, an Afghan werewolf and refugee, as she navigates a world where evil takes both human and supernatural forms.
