*Nighthawks* is a text-heavy vampire RPG set in a modern world where vampires are publicly known and attempting to coexist with humans. PC Gamer presents it as an unusually ambitious, novel-like game, with extensive writing, voiced characters and a detailed society that makes the player’s life as a newly turned vampire feel broader than a conventional action RPG.

Players investigate a missing servant, use supernatural abilities such as speaking with corpses and dematerialising, and navigate relationships, politics and moral choices. The game grew from a Kickstarter project led by Richard Cobbett and published by Wadjet Eye Games; its distinctive appeal lies in the sheer amount of narrative and world-building, though its emphasis on reading means it is aimed primarily at players seeking an interactive novel rather than fast-paced combat.
