Nebula Award Finalist for Best Game Writing in the 58th Annual Nebula Awards!
Athens, Greece: a city with an ancient past now thrust into the modern age. A city torn between the Camarilla establishment and the Anarchs, where everyone owes your boss a favor, and that makes you an untouchable vampire in this nocturnal society where you and your fellow Kindred must conceal yourselves from mortal eyes--the Masquerade of the Kindred.
Rumors spread of an ancient vampire, Aristovoros, intent on bringing about a new world for the Kindred, an end to the Masquerade. Why hide from mortals when you can reign over them as gods?
Who will you use, who will you help, and who will you prey on? Will you topple the old Prince Peisistratos? Will you betray your boss when your lost sire returns? What miseries will you inflict to fight for a fairer, more humane world?

Which part will you play in this game of masks?
This story is frankly just not up to the standard set by Parliament of Knives or Night Road. The pacing feels entirely off, there is no clear indication of the consequences of choices, potential allies you try to court are murdered in the next scene (literally happened not once, not twice, but three times in my play through).To avoid being entirely negative, the core concept of a VtM story set outside the United States with Camarilla elders paranoid by Gehenna prophecy with influence from Greek myth is cool. The execution was just excruciating. If you enjoy VtM as a political drama, get Parliament of Knives. If you want a single player V5 table top chronicle complete with skill and inventory management get Night Road. Don’t get this.
SotS review
Lanceotys
I’m a V20 player, so it’s always a little difficult reading V5 stories. I didn’t like all the modern politics, but I’m used to having to ignore those kinds of things. I can’t help but to compare it to Parliament of Knives and Night Road, both of which are better, in my opinion. I would like more achievements, as well. That being said, it’s still an enjoyable story. I only have 8 achievements so far, but I’m looking forward to getting the rest. I like the core cast of characters and the setting. It’s nice to have a story outside of North America. SotS is great if you’re craving more VTM content and you need a fix.
Feels like a third of a story

Starts out decently enough but quickly deteriorates. This should not have been released in this state - it’s barely 1/3 complete.
Thoughts on he game

I enjoyed the game although I would like to have some other clans and disciplines added to the game, maybe some more predator types too. Other than that I really like the game
