The world has been devastated by a nuclear war, leaving humans in large cities and mutants living in small villages on the plains. Lord Dominix, a human leader, wants to start a war against the "bad-blooded" mutants. Your village chief has tasked you with preventing this war.
Bad Blood is a top-down action game with light RPG elements. You can choose from one of three predefined characters: Varrigg (a strong green mutant), Dekker (a human male armed with a knife), or Jakka (a mutant who shoots laser beams from her eyes). The choice you make has limited impact on gameplay and storyline.
Gameplay involves exploring the world map, visiting cities and villages, talking to NPCs, picking up items and new weapons, and engaging in real-time combat. The game features a day-night cycle that affects the number of monsters on the plains and NPC interactions.
