Hunter: The Reckoning one of the most recent game systems by White Wolf Studios, focuses on the mortal aspect of the World of Darkness. Unlike the other systems, the play assumes the role of an 'Imbued' Mortal, one who knows there are supernatural creatures out there and who is willing to stop them.The game focuses on the characters' attempts to destroy the supernaturals that inhabit our world. It is a story of futility, redemption, revenge and usually doesn't work all that well for the characters.

White Wolf's original World of Darkness game (first published in 1991), Vampire: The Masquerade allows players to roleplay the Kindred, a secretive society of vampires co-existing with mortal civilization.
White Wolf re-released the World of Darkness setting in 2005, cancelling its older lines.The new Vampire game is called "Vampire The Requiem" and has some substantial differences versus the original Masquerade game.
Key differences:
- Fewer clans - some have been dropped, others relegated to bloodlines rather than full clans. The five clans in Requiem are Daeva, Gangrel, Mekhet, Nosferatu, Ventrue. Clan relationships are now secondary to the covenant ones in terms of relationships with other vampires.
- Enhanced importance of covenants, with more in depth coverage. Available covenants are the Carthians, Circle of the Crone, Invictus, Lancea Sanctum, Ordo Dracul and Unaligned (ie no covenant).
- Substantial changes to disciplines, some new ones (often amalgamations of previous ideas), some broken (overpowered) disciplines from the original fixed. Generally they are less helpful in combat that they were.
- Generation concept removed. Now all vampires start off with low 'blood potency' rather than it depending on the power of their 'sire'.
- The Caine creation myth has been dropped. The covenants all have their own beliefs in this area.
