Today, I’m introducing a title with several interesting elements, from its setting to its gameplay mechanics. It’s a game that has been in Early Access for nearly three years and is now gearing up for its much-anticipated full release. It’s called Few Nights More, developed by Aeterna Ludi, the same team behind None Shall Pass, which I introduced last week.
Published by GrabTheGames, Few Nights More is a roguelite turn-based RPG challenges you to assume the role of a Vampire Lord reclaiming lost territories in a dark, expansive universe dominated by humanity. With an emphasis on castle design, tactical combat, and character progression, this title invites players to shape their destiny through careful planning and bold decisions.
The game introduces a unique combination of castle management and roguelite mechanics. You are tasked with constructing and fortifying your stronghold by adding rooms, traps, and minions, all while enhancing its strength with decorative buffs. Each night culminates in a defensive battle where your decisions are put to the test. Combat is turn-based, requiring you to outmaneuver hunters, veterans, and bosses using a mix of skills, perks, and trinkets gathered throughout your journey.
You can choose from seven distinct Vampire Lords, each with a unique history and abilities, and align with one of three disciplines—Prestige, Seduction, or Terror—each offering unique skills. These disciplines not only influence gameplay but also add depth to the RPG experience by allowing you to customize your Lord’s approach to domination. As you progress through three acts and 12 difficulty levels, you accumulate Heritage Points to upgrade your Lord, unlock talents, and build new castles, ensuring fresh gameplay with each playthrough.
With a strong reception from players, garnering “Very Positive” reviews on Steam, Few Nights More will leave early access on the 22nd of January 2025. Below is an overview, screens, and cinematic trailer.
