Home\ Funded Projects\ Parliament of Hell: 1796

Parliament of Hell is a horror/comedy point and click adventure game for PC. 19 year old gay gothic horror writer Matthew Gregory Lewis just wants to write his trashy queer horror stories, but Father has plans that drag him into high society. In the mode of classic British satire, our protagonist will unleash supernatural forces into the upper echelons of 18th century London society in the hopes of causing a social scandal big enough to get himself disinherited – and finally left alone to write.

Explore the height of the Gothic era, and the infamous Parliament of Mad King George. Experience a tale based off a true story of a forgotten LGBT+ figure written by a BAFTA and Nebula-winning games writer. Delve into cosmic horror themed on religious apocrypha, and try a bit too hard to get a date with Lord Byron.

See and hear all of the above in a unique aesthetic style inspired by the golden era of the 8-bit British home microcomputer.
