Our take on Guise Of The Wolf
The game departs from a standard action-adventure structure by making transformation central to progression. Human stealth and werewolf combat are not separate modes; switching between them is used to solve puzzles, remove obstacles, and advance through the castle.
What is Guise Of The Wolf?
Play as Dominik, a young alchemist in the medieval kingdom of Uhorsko, who becomes cursed after being bitten by the beast he was summoned to stop.
Explore a dark castle while searching for a cure and uncovering its mystery. Switch between human and werewolf forms to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles, including potion-making through ingredient mixing. The werewolf form supports combat and destruction, while the human form enables stealth, theft, and lock-picking. Moonlight, defeated humans, and broken stone beacons can extend the transformation. A map supports castle exploration, and the story has multiple endings. The game includes voice-over dialogue, subtitles, original music, and Xbox 360 controller support with vibration.

Guise Of The Wolf compared to similar games
Guise Of The Wolf combines first-person castle exploration with human stealth, werewolf combat, transformation-based puzzles, and a story with multiple endings. Jusant focuses on climbing a tall tower and exploring different routes, while Sundered: Eldritch Edition is described as a chaotic metroidvania rather than a first-person castle adventure. The alternatives therefore center on climbing or metroidvania exploration instead of switching forms to progress.
