Unravel Intrigue in a Dynamic Fantasy World
Trials of the Thief-Taker immerses players in a captivating narrative where choices shape the world, delivering a unique blend of adventure and strategy.
In London, 1729, in a period predating the establishment of an official police force, the individuals known as thief-takers fulfilled the role of hunters in pursuit of criminals for financial gain. Dive into a world where flintlocks are fired and gin is sipped amid the era of powdered wigs. Will your endeavors lead you to wealth by capturing smugglers and highwaymen, prompt you to extend compassion, or perhaps steer you towards assuming the position of a criminal mastermind?
"Trials of the Thief-Taker" is an interactive historical adventure novel comprising 140,000 words, crafted by the skilled author Joey Jones. This narrative experience places you in full command, letting your decisions shape the course of the tale. It remains entirely text-based, devoid of visual aids or auditory accompaniments, relying solely on the boundless strength of your own imagination.
Embark on a journey as a thief-taker—individuals remunerated by the court or engaged by victims of crime to recover lost possessions and, for an additional fee, bring offenders to account. Your pursuits will take you across the mist-laden commons and cramped backstreets of 18th-century London. Choose to lead a band of unkempt thugs or navigate the streets solo as you capture highwaymen along desolate paths and uncover felons and forgers in taverns and coffeehouses. Employing strategy, might, or through shadowy alliances, you will locate your targets.
Your actions could serve justice, enabling you to establish a distinguished reputation and garner allies. Alternatively, you might perpetrate crimes you later aim to resolve: purloining goods you are tasked with recovering, corrupting prison guards to release your comrades, constructing your criminal domain while society reveres you as a hero.
Whether you opt for swiftness or prudence, propriety or infamy, benevolence or avarice—it all unfolds within a day's work for a thief-taker.
Prepare your flintlock! The time has come to apprehend thieves.
- Choose your character's gender identity: male, female, or a woman masquerading as a man; gay or straight.
- Navigate a society governed by decorum, stringent statutes, and concealed betrayals.
- Establish a criminal dominion or pioneer the introduction of law enforcement...or perhaps both concurrently!
- Capture, befriend, or engage in romantic entanglements with corrupt officials, escapologists, nobles, highwaymen, smugglers, and body-snatchers.
- Immerse yourself in Georgian vernacular: acquaint yourself with terms like cove versus swell, blue pigeon versus ark ruffian.
- Experience the thrill of Hazard—a high-stakes dice game—in the gambling establishments of Covent Garden.
- Forge ahead relying on your persuasive rhetoric, a trusty steed, your acumen for streetwise dealings—or with your fists poised for action.
