Werefore

You are a werewolf in a society that fears people like you. But contrary to the violent monsters of myth, what lives inside you is simply a creature that wants to run free as its true self.  

The moonlight’s hold on you intensifies with the pull of your heart. There is something you wish for above all else, and you will risk being discovered to get it.

In this game…

• Set up a web of complicated relationships to other player characters.
• Navigate challenges using six socially-oriented skills.
• Throw off the rumors about your identity as a werewolf.
• Reveal what your heart calls for in a monologue. 

Each time you fail to go after your true desires, you risk transforming as your emotions break loose. But your passionate nature aids you when you finally act on your dearest wish.
