Long Knives

Long Knives is a low-fantasy wuxia text adventure with TTRPG mechanics and branching narrative. You play one of many orphans taken in by distant kin. When you reach adulthood, you become a constable, whether for survival or ambition, as the dynasty crumbles and the land fractures.

Shape your character

You choose your character’s background from before they became an orphan, customize their attributes and allocate points. Proficiencies affect skill checks. The game uses an 18-sided die rather than a D20, and checks can be visible or hidden. You can reload at any time.

Make your choices

The second-person narrative lets you choose every line of dialogue. Story branches respond to hidden variables.
