Grime & Gaslight ~ Victorian Era Horror Game

After a malevolent cult enjoyed a continueing growth of popularity, it became a threat to all people who did not share their philosophy.
In 1845, the cult had taken control by force over several city districts or even whole villages throughout Great Britain. Barricades were built and the supporters of the cult skirmished with the remaining parts of the police. No side was able to prevail and so they just keep reinforcing the barricades. The people in the occupied city district which were disapproving of the satanic cult tried to flee... So the greater members of the cult summoned demonic creatures to prevent people from leaving their city
Now, a priest is declared to sneak into one of those reprobated cities to finish a task, that multiple people had failed accomplishing before. That´s were our story begins...

Wow good job, I ain't gonna lie but this is the kinda game I'd be totally interested in. In fact, I was thinking of doing something similar myself once. Love the genre and the story.

Good luck
