About Vampire: The Masquerade — Parliament of Knives
Dominate undead politics through cunning and violence! Will a missing Prince give you the opening to betray your sire and seize power?
Vampire: The Masquerade — Parliament of Knives is a 600,000 word interactive horror novel by Jeffrey Dean, based on Vampire: The Masquerade and set in the World of Darkness shared story universe. Your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
The undead Prince of Canada's capital city has disappeared, and his second-in-command, Eden Corliss, wants you to find out why. You’ve been loyal to Corliss since she Embraced you and made you a vampire, but this could be your chance to take her place. Will you defend your sire from the accusations flying, or join forces with her rivals to bring her down?
Ottawa’s court of immortals is tight-knit and merciless, with tensions between clans that go back centuries. The Prince has been missing for four days, and old alliances are starting to crumble. How will you leverage the political chaos to your advantage? The authorities are already on high alert against a new group of Anarchs in the city, who have been breaching the Masquerade by revealing their true nature. You’ll have to gather evidence to demonstrate which suspects deserve punishment, and you can’t afford to guess wrong. One careless word could get you stabbed in the back—staked through the heart, and left to burn in the sun.
Who will you save when the knives are out?

Reviewing (mostly) every game (or DLC) in my library, part 633: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (9/10) Jeffrey Dean's[i] Vampire: The Masquerade — Parliament of Knives ("Parliament")[/i] is a beast of a game. A beast of 600,000 words, I tell you! I honestly cannot even begin to properly express how ravenous I became while reading. Sure, there was a bit of a slow start, but the narrative deliberately keeps its cards close to its chest. Every revelation feels just as shocking as the previous one as layers of political intrigue, hidden agendas, and long-buried secrets are gradually peeled back. Rather than handing you the full picture, the story constantly leaves you questioning who can be trusted and what everyone is truly after, making each new discovery impossible to resist. Along with an incredibly complex cast of characters, [i]Parliament[/i] has one of the strongest narratives in the whole catalog. That said, it is not without its flaws. It has a more demanding game design than usual. I found myself locked out of branches or choices I would have gladly taken in a heartbeat. As a result, I got a horrific ending and a lack of closure. But if you’re the type of reader to do multiple playthr…5 found this helpful
I wish this one functioned a bit more like Night Road, but I still really loved it. The story was fun and engaging, and I think the character interactions and relationships you could build with them is a lot deeper than what you can do in the other game. It feels a lot less high stakes, but I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing. It's a good political drama with a lot of replay value.1 found this helpful
