Check out the new gameplay trailer for When Wolf Fades below:
A press release describes When Wolf Fades as follows:
In When Wolf Fades players become the Big Bad Wolf as he secretly takes over the deceased Grandma’s crime empire to keep her gang of Red Caps in line without tipping off his own gang. Players will need to carefully keep both gangs under control without blowing their cover.
Dark City has its own rules: break them, and you’ll pay with your own skin. Grandma’s underlings believe Big Bad Wolf is their new boss, while his town pack still sees him as their rightful leader. The problem is, he can’t fool everyone forever. His disguise is starting to crack, and dangerous crime bosses are already waiting for a chance to exploit any weakness.
For the next 30 days, until the full moon, Big Bad Wolf will have to keep his ears open, make shady deals, and make sure no one smells a rat. And while he’s at it, he’ll have to find out who wanted Grandma out of the way – and why. Taking her place was easier than figuring out why someone wanted her gone in the first place.
When Wolf Fades is a story where fairy tales are long gone and their characters have found much more profitable ways to make a living. Gnomes do the dirty work, the Mermaid runs contraband through the port, the Tooth Fairy owns the city’s nightclubs, and Morozko knows how to keep a body fresh. Especially when that body knew too much. Wolf will have to navigate Dark City’s crime bosses, pull off shady deals, and play on everyone’s greed.
