Summary:
The graveyard shift at a dingy diner in San Francisco – that’s where MC’s story begins. It’s just another normal night, or at least it seems to be.
…That is, until a certain mysterious customer stops by, bringing the dangerous attention of a few people with him. When it rains, it pours, and suddenly MC finds himself in the middle of a war he didn’t even know existed… between vampires.
How does MC react to the dark, violent world that opens up before him? That’s up to you!
Features:
► Genre: Drama, BxB romance, dark modern
► Length: ~45,000 words
► Endings: 6
► Changeable MC personality & interests
► Different dialogue & choices based on personality

Achievements Unlocking Issue Solution!
Hello everyone,
For those of you having difficulties with Steam achievements not properly unlocking, please follow the steps below:
1) Navigate to appdata/roaming/RenPy/castlesatnight (or something similarly named - this is an odd bug with Ren'Py, our game engine, using an old name for the project) and delete the .persistent file.
2) Delete your Steam .persistent file, which should be in Steam/steamapps/common/Chess of Blades.
3) You should now have a clean slate for COB, which should in turn make all achievements properly unlock.
This seems to be an issue that has affected other Ren'Py games in the past, but we apologize for the inconvenience!
Please let us know if you're still having issues through a comment or emailing contact@argentgames.co, and we'll see what we can do :)

Chess of Blades is now available on Steam!
Grab it now for 22% off during our week-long launch sale!
For those of you interested in the game's R-18 patch, which includes NSFW scenes, it's currently available on our Itch.io page as a free download. Check it out here!

Release Info + Launch Sale!
Hello to all our awesome followers --
We know many of you are eagerly anticipating COB's release on Steam! While the build is completely ready to go (and has been for awhile), we're currently waiting to hear back from Steam on a small but vital part of the game's release.
This part of the process is unfortunately out of our hands, but as soon as it's resolved, we'll be able to launch! There will be a 22% off launch sale that will put the price for COB at $19.50 for a week, before it returns to its normal price of $24.99, so nab it while you can!
In the meantime, if you have any questions for us or want to be notified the very second we push the release button, join us and many other COB fans on Discord!
