Introduction
The gaslamps are burning ...
Written using The Quill Adventure Writing System, this text adventure is set in the Victorian era and, although reasonably short, has been designed to be quite description-and-immersion rich with a few nice puzzles. There aren't so many new adventures coming along for the Electron these days and I haven't found any set in that period or of the Jack the Ripper / Sherlock Holmes ilk, so I thought I'd write my own after being inspired by the excellent BBC series Ripper Street.
Request for Help: All Retro Software titles authored with The Quill suffer from not having a save/load function, which really requires an original disc copy of The Quill for the BBC Micro to generate the game, but we have yet to track a copy down. Please let us know in the forum, if you can help get hold of a copy.
