London Summer
A downloadable game
The London Summer, also known as the London social season or simply “The Season”, was a period of time during the summer months when high society in London would come together to attend a series of lavish events, including balls, concerts, and other social gatherings.
You are a petty thief, dreaming about finding a way to carve yourself a place in London’s high society. You accumulated a huge gambling debt with a dangerous gang called The Crows. Desperate to pay off your debt, you came up with a terrible idea: crash the lavish summer parties of London’s elite and steal their most valuable jewelry. You know this is a very dangerous game that could lead you to the gallows. But you don’t have a choice, do you?
🇬🇧 🇪🇸 Includes English and Spanish versions
London Summer is a solo RPG, and a hack of DEAD BELT. London Summer is a Victorian party-crawling and jewelry-looting experience that requires a deck of common playing cards, a couple of six-sided dice, and some pen and paper. The game includes virtual board files to be used with playingcards.io.
This game includes references to cons used by Victorian-era scammers, as well as the prevailing jewelry trends of the time. The criminal monsters depicted in London Summer were real, scary felons. I tried to provide some information on all these references for the sake of immersion and reading pleasure. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that the fictional secret group of detectives called The Queen’s Almanac never truly existed, and you won’t find me suggesting otherwise.
