Steam Highwayman 1.0.5

You engage the regulator and bring the substantial Ferguson velosteam to a standstill. From your vantage point on the hill, you observe the slow procession of freight wagons and the steam carriages of the gentry navigating through the rain-soaked night. Unbeknownst to them, they are on the brink of a sudden and formidable encounter with the Steam Highwayman.

What choices lie ahead for you? Will you launch a nocturnal ambush on the nobles traveling the Bath Road? Will you intervene to save the Wethered Brewery from impending closure or seek retribution against the duplicitous Colonel Snappet? Might you ally with the Compact for Workers’ Equality or focus your efforts on providing protection to hauliers on the Wycombe route? Is trading cargo along the Thames merely an additional source of income? Will you attend the opulent Cliveden Ball or compete for victory in the Spenser Cup?

Steam Highwayman offers an immersive open-world adventure experience within an alternate Steampunk history. With this interactive gamebook, you chart your course through a fantastical England, uncovering secrets, completing quests, rescuing those in peril, and exacting vengeance upon those who merit it.

The world is lush with steam-powered innovation, influenced by powerful Guilds and marred by stark social inequality.

The midnight road beckons!
