The World of Darkness is just that: a world. While Vampire: The Masquerade is very much White Wolf's flagship TTRPG, there's also Werewolf: The Apocalypse, Hunter: The Reckoning, then seemingly long-forgotten entries like Mage: The Ascension and Changeling: The Dreaming - more on those later. While the noir-ish setting of VTM lends itself perfectly to videogames, we've also seen Hunter's self-titled videogame release in 2002, then Nacon brought Werewolf to virtual life with Earthblood in 2022, followed up by Choice of Games' choose-your-own-adventure-style visual novel, The Book of Hungry Names, in 2024. But with White Wolf taking ownership of the World of Darkness all over again, I ask LA By Night icon Jason Carl about the team's plans to adapt Werewolf or Hunter into projects as ambitious as Bloodlines 2.

Here's what we're all clicking on this weekend.
