So I've plugged this on here a lot and thought people might like to hear about the game.
It's worth noting that Nightlife is out of print and won't be coming back due to IP disputes. I will also merely observe that one of the co designers has mentioned that you can probably find it on the internet (I believe he mentioned 4chan) but naturally this means he no more endorses pirating the game than I do.
Let's start with the cover.
That's certainly a cover.
Note the mullet and the swooning lady. I'm not sure whether she's a victim or whether she's been having hot monster sex in a subway tunnel. It calls itself "urban horror" which is accurate, although their take on horror is very different than other games at the time as we'll see later.
Play a Vampyre! Play a Werewolf! Play a Ghost!
That's crucial to understanding what the game is aiming for. It has lots and lots of character options. It was one of its main selling points.
