About the Game

Immerse yourself in the dark allure of "Le Petit Morte" an open world vampire JRPG that plunges you into an enchanting yet treacherous version of New York City, reimagined through the haunting lens of a vampire's existence. As a freshly embraced vampire from one of 12 distinctive clans—each boasting formidable powers, vexing curses, enmities and alliances—you’ll embark on a thrilling tale of survival filled with strategic choices and consequential relationships. 

Navigate the complex social landscape, balancing the ever-looming threat of hunger with your burgeoning powers, as you forge friendships, rivalries, and your very own faction among the city's supernatural elite. Whether you choose to steal from the wealthy, hone your skills through arduous training, or invest wisely for future gain, each decision shapes your path towards mastery or downfall. With a bustling city and engaging quests that usher you deeper into the heart of clan conspiracies, "Le Petit Morte" promises an unforgettable journey of temptation, betrayal, and the thrill of the nocturnal hunt—who will you become when the sun sets?

Character Creation: In Le Petit Morte choose a vampire clan and step into an Open World JRPG in NYC where many options are open to you, and all actions have consequences. With 12 Unique Bloodlines, 12 unique backgrounds and strengths to choose from and Over 30 NPCs to recruit, master the powers of your blood, arm your allies for what may come, and renounce or serve the designs of the Elders and the Dark Gods.

You play as a young vampire, embraced for unknowable ends, now suddenly adrift in New York City after your creator’s disappearance. Explore historic sites like the Museum of Modern Art and Central Park while supporting or subverting the dominance of Clan Elders. Your trials will take you to Brooklyn, Manhattan, The Bronx, Queens, Staten Island and beyond where you’ll face Mortals, Beasts, Vampires, Shapeshifters, Mages, the Fae, and Demonic Entities. Survive your foes to earn the right to call yourself a true Child of the Night. Their varied strengths shall put your knowledge, allies and skills to the test.

Lore: Father Cain watches your every step, and fortune may lead you to allies, weapons and a vast selection of over 200 powerful abilities. You will have the opportunity to customize your gameplay to suit your playstyle. Whether you want to break your foes' skulls with your bare hands, summon spectral hordes, command bestial legions, control the elements, or build an empire of blood (or much more!), the choice is yours!

Successfully draining the lifeblood of your Vampiric kinfolk will unlock access to their unique bloodline abilities, but at what cost to your immortal soul and reputation? Aiding Vampiric clans and factions may bring great rewards, but may also incite new animosities and unforeseen consequences.

The Chosen of Cain’s Progeny is a survivor, so if the dark nights spell your doom seek out new allies, customize your build and vie for supremacy once more, for you must not fear a little death…

History

Uncanny Valley: Le Petit Morte is a return to RPG gaming roots for the Solo Developer Christopher Morris-King. Growing up in Boston, Massachusetts playing classics like Shadowrun, Fallout, Baldur’s Gate and a multitude of Tabletop Inspired RPGs of the era, the Uncanny Valley is a dark reimagining of our timeline meant to merge the highs of those roleplay experiences in a single player game with the macabre excitement of vampiric unlife within the gritty streets of New York City.
