Victorian Era
Birmingham burns as the French vie for war, witness it all in this Dark Victorian Narrative-RPG.
Author's Note:
- 46 unique locations, 8 bosses, and 22 characters.
- A city bogged down by industrialisation.
- A royal conspiracy that threatens the fate of England.
- Engage in tense gameplay as a betrayed noble turned highwayman. Raid estates, hold up and rob people on the road, or act as a mercenary against the French as King Richard flirts with war.
- Slice-of-life options: become a master thief, burgle houses as a chimney sweep, attend noble galas, or assist a troubled journalist in deciphering a cryptic letter that threatens the fate of England....
I strongly recommend starting your campaign with ''Generate Points of Interest'' and ''Generate Areas'' disabled. With these options toggled off, Franz will make use of the areas as intended.
