Mask of the Rose
Step into *Mask of the Rose*, a gothic adventure set in the twisted underbelly of Fallen London. Here, death is fleeting, rats converse, and Hell looms just beneath the surface. The city now lies hidden underground, far from sunlight, with Parliament submerged in the Thames. Society’s rigid Victorian norms have crumbled, replaced by enigmatic Masters who rule from shadowy heights. At the heart of the mystery is a murder—and your housemate Archie is the prime suspect. This visual novel breaks genre boundaries, offering deep social simulation and player freedom. Pursue love, solve the crime, or dive into quirky side quests. Work as a census-taker for the Masters, asking intrusive questions, or craft theories about the murder. Shape your reputation through fashion choices, from elegant attire to bold, controversial outfits. Romantic paths abound: plan the city’s first Feast of the Rose, explore relationships ranging from romance to aromantic connections, or flirt with supernatural beings. Every decision.
