Historical sci-fi / alternate history - an IFDB Poll
by Rovarsson
RSS FeedI loved "Slouching towards Bedlam".
Does anyone know of any other games that have that "the-future-as-it-might-have-been-imagined-long-ago"-feel? Anything steampunk qualifies, I'm also thinking of Jules Verne's novels and even the world of "Avatar; The Legend of Korra".

| Fallen London, by Failbetter Games 2 votes "Since "Sunless..." [+]"Since "Sunless Skies" is on here, the game that started the franchise deserves a mention. More of a light fantasy with steampunk elements than strict steampunk (the setting is very low on realism and high on devils, talking animals, and eldritch horrors)" --Christina Nordlander...
