* VirtualPaperDoll: Choosing what the player character wears on their head, face, body and lapel is a core mechanic - other characters' opinions can be positively or negatively affected by what the player wears, and wearing certain clothes or accessories can unlock dialogue options, even if they don't align with the player's established personality. Dressing in finery allows the player to adopt a superior manner - either nobly or condescendingly - while wearing commoner's clothing encourages them to be humble and deferential.

The story begins in late 1862, the year London was dragged beneath the Earth by bats.
