Description

It’s 1986 in North Haven – a neon-drenched city where monsters blend into the crowd.

Play as Circe, a seductive vampire detective, or Dante, a reckless hellhound cop. Investigate gruesome murders, track forbidden magic, and protect the secrets that keep you alive. Romance might bloom – but some hearts beat far too dark.
