The Game

Our story begins with MC's graveyard shift at a dingy diner in San Francisco. It's just another normal night until a mysterious customer stops by, bringing the dangerous attention of a few people with him. MC finds himself in the middle of a war he didn't even know existed... between vampires.

The Soundtrack Red Embrace’s original score features seven original tracks comprising of dark, gritty, urban textures with rock influences, synth basslines and searing electric guitar melodies. Although short, the soundtrack explores a range of genres and moods, from the gentle and romantic piano of “Us, Alone” to the frantic percussive textures of “Getaway”. Included as a bonus track in the OST release is an earlier, more upbeat version of the nu jazz-inflected “On a Love Kick”.
