I searched the Game Room archives, and couldn’t find any mention of it. If I missed something, please forgive me.
I’ve been playing the browser game ‘Fallen London’ for a little over a year now, and I really love it. I am, however, reaching the point from which further progress will really only be possible by either creating alts or connecting with other players.
The Failbetter community is a good hook-up place for the later, but I’m wondering if there are any fellow Dopers in the game that would like to form some mutually beneficial trade agreements?
I haven’t played for a while - anything new and exciting happening in London Below?
Depends how long and what you’d consider ‘new’. I never kept up with what had just been added and what hadn’t, so when I ran into new stuff, I had no idea if it was just ‘new to me’, as it were. Still can’t go ‘NORTH’, which bugs me, but I’m looking for ‘The Name’ currently… Which I know is pure masochism.
I just logged in and my, I AM far behind. I have to look at it and see if it’s worth catching up on.
I’ve played on and off - I tend to rediscover it, keep a browser window with it around for a week or so, and then lose track of it for months. It’s a cool game, but the intermittent play is frustrating to me.
An update to my previous. I’ve found myself playing more consistently, and as I get further in, I’m finding it more engaging. There are so very many stories here… and so many ways to get into trouble.
I let my Scandal get out of control and wound up spending some time in the Tomb-Colonies for my sins. That was rather entertaining, actually.
I saw this thread and started playing. I really like it so far. If you want to interact with my character, username is Lady Gaga.
Mine is “kevinmatheny” - taken from my Twitter handle back when I first created a Fallen London account. I’ll shoot you an invite.
I played this quite a bit and enjoyed it, but once I hit VIP status and saw the endless plains of grind open up in front of me I gave up and haven’t logged in since. Might check out Sunless Sea once that’s done, who knows.
I’m intrigued by the Game of Knife and Candle, but have a lack of people to play against, or with. I have a surfeit of tokens, so if anyone would care for an invitation, I can oblige.
