The year is 1855. Queen Victoria is on the throne, industries are growing, and railroads are spreading across the country. In the fast-paced city of London, the rich carry on with their high-society lives while the poor rot in the slums. Tenements are overcrowded, stuffed with the lower class. Children work all the day long, and factories pull in more and more victims. London serves as the home of beggars and the playgrounds of thieves. With pick-pockets and criminals and prostitutes roaming through the streets, it's not so difficult to get mixed up in a bad crowd.
You've no money. Will you steal or will you suffer?
Or, if you're well off, will you just turn your head away from the city filth?[/font]
