Will you be the vampire or the werewolf?

I only know about one type of werewolf: the half-human one like Michael J Fox played in Teen Wolf that can play basketball.

Bitefight’s creatures are quite different, with some horrendously vicious werewolves that hunt only one thing – vampires. And no, these are not the vampires such as The Count in Sesame Street – they’re equally nasty and vicious ones like in The Lost Boys. The tagline of Bitefight is “The struggle between Vampires and Werewolves has rampaged for centuries. It’s your destiny to decide this battle!” and that just about sums it up.

It’s at least an original premise but the game itself fails to deliver on many counts. The game involves roam across the city looking for new victims, beating them up and then building yourself an impregnable empire. Through this, you earn money which you can also use to buy safehouses and Manhunts and fighting other players reward you with money. The more experience you have, the more levels you climb. The problem is, the game is slow paced and wandering around finding people to savage takes ages whether you’re vampire or werewolf.

Bitefight might sound like a Mike Tyson boxing game but in reality, it’s quite a poor vampire-werewolf themed game that could do with a lot more depth and challenge to make it worthwhile.
