About the Story

Richard is a modern-day vampire who likes to eat in, so he always keeps a fresh victim trapped in his lair. All of his captives eventually die; YOU hope to be the first to escape.

Match wits with Richard, his vampire cohort, Paul, and their human servant, Charles, in a treacherous game where bleeding to death is the least of your problems. And learn what it means to have something terrible in common with your captors: You must kill in order to survive.

Donor is a 139,000-word interactive novel by Elena Hearty. It's entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

- Play as a young agoraphobic female. Although not a romance, gay, straight, and bi options are availble for certain end-game scenarios.
- Act as a helpless victim or master manipulator.
- Befriend or betray your vampire captors.
- Manage your heart rate to stay alive when Richard and Paul get hungry.
- Venture into the dark corridors of Richard’s lair in search of silver weapons.
- No permadeath. If you die, automatically go back to your last choice.
- Lots of mini-games, including Blackjack and Tic-Tac-Toe!
- 14 Endings total (7 deaths, 7 “happy” endings), each with their own epilogue. Finish the game as a familiar, a vampire, a vampire-hunter, or win your freedom!

How will you outwit your vampire captors?

Vampire Horror - Highly Recommend, July 23, 2023
by bertilak (UK)

A genuinely tension inducing and thrilling game. Bringing the horrific side of vampires back into the limelight, whilst still keeping their charm.

Well written and very replayable, every character feels realistic and every choice feels like it counts.
