I'm 60 minutes into playing Vampire Therapist.
You play as a vampire cowboy
Was immediately hit on by sexy goth germans
Game is full of sex positivity
Mentor character is a hot daddy named Andromachus
The gameplay concept is really interesting
I think I'm being tricked into learning actual things about my own mental health
You should be checking this game out. You ever play a game and you just know it's going to be a hit with the girls and the queers? Yeah. This game oozes personality. Target audience reached, it's me, I'm the target audience.

Hey, voice actor Fans, guess what
Hey everyone! This is my lovely friend Cyrus Nemati, who many of you may know as Theseus, Dionysus and Ares from the first Hades game.
He has spent the last couple years developing his very first indie game, Vampire Therapist, which plays with the many vampire character archetypes from across media.
It's been reviewing VERY well but it's not getting very many wishlists, so if you're interested in vampires, fantastic art and clever, funny, and thoughtful writing about vampire mental health, go wishlist it on Steam!
And listen, Cyrus may be too humble to leverage his colorful career as your favourite Hades hotboys, so I'm gonna do it for him 😌 GO SUPPORT FANTASTIC INDIE DEVS LIKE THIS ONE!
#Vampire therapist#Matt mercer#I know the game can probably live on its own merit#But why not use an advertise draw if you have it#Andromachos can get it tho...Dvilf

The voices of Vampire Therapist
Hi Tumblr! I'm Cyrus Nemati, creative director at Little Bat Games, where we're making Vampire Therapist. You might know me as a voice actor. I voiced Theseus, Dionysus, and Ares in Hades, so as you might imagine, voices are my thing.
When I started designing Vampire Therapist, I wanted to create characters not only had deep narrative depth, but that would be challenging and rewarding to voice. I voice protagonist Sam Walls and his mentor, Andromachos. Writing a game about therapy is really tricky, so being able to jump in revoice lines was a huge benefit for the game!
I also voice two of the therapy clients in the game, Dr. Drayne and Edmund Kean. Dr. Drayne is the kind of challenge any actor delights in, having three very distinct characterizations that have to seem natural, whereas Edmund Kean is the Shakespearean actor of his time.
As much as I'd like to save money, I couldn't voice all characters in the game, but I'm very picky about voices and needed a cast of the absolute best I could find. So I got them.
If you've played Hades 2, you've heard Sarah Grayson or Selene. Or maybe you know her from Gone Home or Tacoma? But I needed her ability to alternate between the very light and the very dark for murderous vampire content creator Meddy.
To play Isabella d'Este, a real historical figure and esteemed patron of the arts during the Renaissance, I needed someone with a sense of the theatrical and some excellent comic timing. For that, I turned to a very old friend, Kylie Clark, who comes much more from the theatre tradition that video games... which she doesn't play at all. Until Vampire Therapist!
For our fabulous goth bartender, Crimson, I needed the epitome of cool, sexy, and tantalizingly mysterious. You might know Francesca Meaux as Eurydice from Hades, but she went to some unexpected places to play Crimson!
I did say I wanted the best of the best, right? Vampire Therapist is a super low-budget indie, but if I'm going to fill a club with quirky, sexy goths, I need range, and for that, I got Matthew Mercer. Yeah, that Matthew Mercer. The Critical Role one. The one from Baldur's Gate 3. The one from all your favorite video games. How could I do less? He's playing Reinhard the sexy goth and Ciaran the goth priest in Vampire Therapist.
You can see the work we've put into every aspect of Vampire Therapist. I think you're going to find that it's unlike any game you've ever played.
It'll be out on July 18th, and you can wishlist it on Steam now!
And on GOG!

Sometimes I really want to read a short summary of what to expect from a game with a very particular description that CATER to my OWN SPECIFIC interests, so here we go.
(click here for other videogames)
what to expect from VAMPIRE THERAPIST
Visual novel and completely voiced, relatively short game
Doesn't really have a plot
The gameplay is only choosing dialogue options and labelling statements (cognitive distorsions) like a therapist
There are a few minigames (clicking on thoughts, choosing a vein to drink from in some people)
The developers consulted real therapists to create the game
You play as Sam, an American vampire who wants to become a therapist for vampires and moves to Germany to learn from Andromachos
Most characters are bisexual/pansexual (the protagonist also talks about his previous male lover)
Sam will be able to choose what kind of thinking patterns his clients are doing
Before every session (a part from the first) you will have to select the main cognitive distorsions the clients use and those are the ones you will be able to work on
Andromachos will help you if you choose the wrong option
After each therapy you will have some extra short scenes in the bar to recap the day and learn more about Crimson (Andromachos' partner) and Andromachos
There are four clients in total, all with different problems and you will see them multiple times with more cognitive distortions being added
The sequence is: Client 1, night, Clien 2, night, Client 3, night, Client 4, night, a session about Sam with new cognitive distorsions to learn
These cycles are repeated multiple times while you work through Sam's past and your clients
I have not played multiple times but I am pretty sure you can change the outcome of the clients' therapist journey by choosing different cognitive distorsions before each session
The game ends with Andromachos helping Sam through some problems of his own
plot? There's not really a plot gameplay? visual novel characters? There are 6 main characters in the game and their stories are the main focus of the game (characters over plot). In particular the 4 clients. sadness level? medium low

Quick and Simple Vampire Therapist Demo Review
Hi folks! I played the demo for Vampire Therapist the other day. Here's the basics and my thoughts/a few screencaps - spoilers within!
The first thing the game shows you is a message saying that while the developers worked with therapists, the game is not a replacement for actual therapy.
TL;DR premise: you are a vampire cowboy (Sam Walls) who wants to help other vampires with their centuries of baggage and trauma via Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which he partially figured on his own, and learns the rest from an established vampire therapist (Andromachos).
The demo plays through the first appointments with your first two clients.
It's a visual novel which seems to have some simple mini-games here and there, mainly for (consensual) neck biting. You listen to the client speak, and when prompted, you guess at which cognitive distortions they're falling into (like "Should Statements" or "Disqualifying Positives"). Here's a video from the game studio re: cognitive distortions. You cannot get a wrong answer; if you guess incorrectly, Andromachos telepathically hints you towards the correct answer and you get to try again.
There is no gruesome content/visuals so far. There's a blood splatter visual/sound effect when you get a correct answer, but it's very brief. When you drink blood, you get the neck biting mini-game where you line up a little moving set of fangs over blood vessels in the neck; then it cuts to the humans you drank from saying how great that was but you don't see them, or any blood.
It's quite suggestive. Andromachos's speaks openly and casually of his sex life, there's references to pegging, the goths get real horny about being bitten...Yeah this is not for kids. Adjust your expectations accordingly.
From what I know of CBT (mainly as someone receiving it), the gameplay seems to use very simplified versions of the concepts. Again, not a replacement for actual therapy - but also not a bad place to start, either. I already feel myself thinking of the game system in combination with what my therapist and I have talked about. Sam is becoming my inner good vibes voice - "Hey now, you're disqualifyin' the positives. You did real well, embrace it. :)"
IMO Sam is a very sincere and relatable character in that he's made some big mistakes but he's just trying to do better and help others. That's true of all of us, but we keep thinking that our mistakes are somehow especially terrible, or that any good we do now will always be overshadowed by the bad we did. And so on and so forth. Also, he's a rootin'-tootin' American cowboy now operating out of a German goth nightclub and his struggles with languages other than English is portrayed amusingly lmao.
So yeah, I really enjoyed the experience so far, and I look forward to playing the game proper once it comes out. Fangs for reading, har har har.
Here have some random screenshots with descriptions in the alt text. (This is my first attempt at adding alt text.)

Vampire Therapist FTW
I don't tend to buy games/visual novels when they're first released and this week was an expensive one for me, but I grabbed this little gem as a consolation prize. I've missed visual novels and I was instantly interested in its premise. I mean, "Vampire Therapist" says so much so quickly!
Now, I haven't finished it yet, but I have had a delightful time with it thus far. The main character, Sam Walls the vampire cowboy, is an adorable cinnamon roll who wants to help other vampires thrive. His new vampire mentor, Andromachos, is as patient and civilized as you could hope an ancient vampire could be. Each of the patients is unique, and some of them are historic figures.
The view on vampires, their psychology, and their issues is interesting. One thing I appreciate is that the game goes out of its way to show how philosophies, religious beliefs, and other modes of thought influence their worldviews, even many years after those modes of thoughts dwindled in popularity. It reinforces how they are products of older times.
I've become partial to the term "bloodfather/mother/parent" for those who turn others into vampires; I automatically liked it better than V:tM's "sire."
You learn various cognitive distortions and identify them in the statements your patients make; this is the heart of the game experience. I've found myself hearing Sam in my head, identifying them IRL since I started playing, which has added an extra layer of amusement.
I haven't done multiple playthroughs yet so I haven't seen if your choices make much of a difference. There have been some moments when it's clear that it doesn't matter what you choose - you'll either have to go through all the options or you'll go through until you choose the right one. Either way, there doesn't seem to be much difference in how others respond. After a certain point in the patient-cowboy therapist exchange, you don't get many choices; Sam just proceeds to wrap up with his observations and advice.
This has been a little disappointing, since it may make replaying it less satisfying, but it's also reduced the need to save-scum for a persistent little perfectionist like me.
The art is beautiful and Western-style, which I prefer. The entire thing is voiced by good voice actors in a variety of accents which I have had no trouble understanding; having so much voiced is a special treat!
The music is good, but one thing that might bother some of folks is that the music from the club runs rather continuously beneath most conversations. If you find it distracting, you may have to turn it off.
I hope to say more later, but I thought I should put in a good word now. $15 ain't a lot but can be a lot to an indie game company, and buzz can be important for something newly released. If this sounds like it's your bag, there's no harm in grabbing it. You might even learn some things that'll be of use to you.
And yes, Matt Mercer does voice a couple of characters. That wasn't a main draw for me, but I know it is for some folks.
