PLAYING THE GAME
Your goal is to complete the mission or reduce the opponents´ health to 0 by using your characters´ attacks. When a health bar is depleted, the game character is “killed” and no longer part of that game.

A Human can regain health if another character “Heals” him.
A Vampire can regain health through successful bites.
A Half-breed can also regain health through successful bites.

OVERVIEW MAP
Drag the square on the overview map at the lower right of screen to view a different area on the gameboard.

CONTROLS
There are three way to activate your character:
Click on the desired character on the gameboard
Click on the name on the list located at the bottom-right of the screen
Or cycle though each character using the TAB key

You can only control one character at a time. You know your character is selected when you see the red splotch below the selected character, that appears while they are standing still.

Keys to move the active character:
W or Up Arrow: Move Forward
A or Left Arrow: Turn Left
D or Right Arrow: Turn Right
S or Down Arrow: Turn Around

Keys to attack with active character:
1: Main Attack
2: Special Attack or Ability
3: Bite (Vampire only)
* The number pad can also be used.

To switch between characters use the TAB button

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Nightvision (Slim) / Bloodsniff (Dragos): Reveals characters outside your field of vision for a short time.

Heal (Deputy): Restores health to teammate.

Bear Trap (Trucker): You can set a trap. The trap is triggered when a character walks over it. A maximum of five traps can be set at one time.

Bite (Vampires only): Vampires regain a small amount of health for each successful Bite attack on a Human.

TURNING HALF-BREED
If a Human is reduced to 10 health or less with a Bite attack, the Human will change into a Half-breed, an uncontrollable character that will run around the gameboard attacking both Humans and Vampires. Humans loose complete control of a character once it becomes a Half-breed.

If a Half-breed attacks a Human, the Half-breed will regain health. And if the attack reduces the Human´s health to 10 or less, Human will also become a Half-breed.

FIELD OF VISION
Field of Vision is represented on the gameboard as lit squares (in grey). Some objects can reduce your Vision and may hide your opponents. Opponents become briefly visible when they attack or use special abilities.
