Rapallo, Italy, Feb 15th 2022 - Xplored, creators of the revolutionary tabletop gaming platform Teburu and its upcoming Kickstarter title The Bad Karmas and the Curse of the Zodiacs, has announced a partnership with World of Darkness to bring its iconic properties to Teburu, beginning with “Vampire: The Masquerade - Milan Uprising.”
With Teburu uniquely positioned to offer the atmospheric and interactive storytelling fans expect from a World of Darkness game, the partnership will take full advantage of everything that Teburu brings to tabletop gaming.
“We are honored that Paradox has trusted us with one of their most beloved franchises”, says Davide Garofalo, Xplored Founder & CEO, “They embraced our vision for the future of boardgaming, and loved our passion for the WoD, that we've been roleplaying for over 25 years, with the same friends and colleagues who now are working together on our first VtM game for Teburu.”
Sean Greaney, Brand Manager for World of Darkness, adds “We are very excited to be partnering with Xplored: their innovative platform of narrative adventure storytelling fits the World of Darkness perfectly. We know that our World of Darkness community will be thrilled to explore this unique style of story gaming.”
“Vampire: The Masquerade - Milan Uprising” will feature hidden actions, interactive storytelling and secret goals inspired by Vampire’s stories of personal and political horror, all made possible by the Teburu system. Vampire: The Masquerade - Milan Uprising lets players experience interactive stories in World of Darkness in a way they have never seen before.
The platform allows Xplored to create games that are enhanced and easy to play, more immersive and engaging, on top of allowing friends to enjoy physical boardgames in remote gameplay.
The above features can currently already been seen in Teburu’s debut title, The Bad Karmas and the Curse of the Zodiac, which will be hitting Kickstarter in March.
