Our take on First Bite
Instead of treating its vampires as a purely serious horror premise, the game combines romance and dark comedy with a choice-driven story that includes numerous fatal outcomes.
What is First Bite?
Play as Noe, a human fanfiction writer who enters a house inhabited by three centuries-old vampires: Valeria, Laurel, and Ilyas.
This LGBTQ+ dark comedy visual novel centers on deciding whether to pursue romance, form a cursed friendship, or seek a second life after death. Choices shape the journey, with 26 possible Dead Ends and multiple positive outcomes. The game offers approximately four hours of play across its routes and endings. Players can select pronouns and customize the protagonist’s name, collect four CGs, and track failures with a Death Tally. Partial voice acting features Alejandro Saab, Jalen Cassell, and Marie Westbrook. The game is rated 18+ and has no full-frontal nudity.
