Ratings and Reviews
This Fallen London exceptional story was well-put together but didn't appeal to me as much as the others.
In this story, you explore the names of the London streets. If you've played Fallen London, you'll know that the names are all different from real London, with jokes and allusions taking place of the actual names.
This story has you become a surveyor and a recruit of a group trying to discover the 'bones of London', the true names and map. And that's pretty much it.
For fans of London itself, map enthusiasts, and Fallen London fanatics, I recommend this game.
I highly recommend Gavin Inglis's other material, and his writing in this game. It was just the concept that didn't appeal as much to me.

Playing this so closely to "The Sinking Synod" really helped underline the differences between the two stories. I feel like I've got a much better idea of why I was so disappointed by that story, and so much more enthusiastic about this one. [...] there is little time to do everything you want, and differing pressures between min-maxing for rewards, avoiding pitfalls and trying to experience an authentic story for your character. This just felt like it did all those so much better. All your activities dovetail well with the themes. It’s not that none of the actions you’re doing have humorous or trivial results, but the majority of them help drive home the idea that this history that has been deliberately lost, hidden with penalties for trying to retrieve it, is important to people. They have memories of a different time, of people who have died, of how things were before, that are all disrupted by the Masters’ desire to gain more control.
