‘Vampire Therapist’ Launches Today on Steam [Trailer]

Little Bat Games’ debut title in the darkly humorous Vampire Therapist is out today on Steam. Inspired by the likes of What We Do in the Shadows and Horrible Histories, Vampire Therapist merges a comedic style with “deep, introspective subject matters and heartfelt characters and real-life historical personalities.”

The story sees players step into the boots of Sam, a cowboy (and vampire) from the Old West who is looking to change his murderous ways and connect with what’s left of his soul. Looking for answers in his immortality, Sam travels to Europe and is taken under the (bat)wing of reformed assassin, warrior and undead heartthrob Andromachos.

Together, they help blood-sucking immortals realise that just because they’re dead, it doesn’t mean they can’t live. All of the techniques discussed and used in Vampire Therapist were created in consultation with licensed therapists to give the game an authentic message.

Throughout the game, you’ll be meeting up with a variety of clients: self-hating vampires, agoraphobic social media addicts, supernatural narcissists, and victims of centuries-old capitalistic systems.

Created by and starring Cyrus Nemati (Dionysus in Hades), he is joined by voice actors Matt Mercer (Critical Role), Sarah Grayson (Hades 2), Francesca Meaux (Hades) and newcomer Kylie Clark, to bring these eccentric vampires to life.
