Set in a steampunk version of Victorian London, the story follows three protagonists with separate motives whose paths connect as they investigate disappearances among society’s vulnerable and a series of killings.
Explore the city’s dockland locations from an isometric view, inspect objects, meet residents, take on quests, and use dialogue and choices to move investigations forward. Chapters shift between the protagonists, each bringing a different perspective and set of skills.
Skills improve through use, while character attributes and drawn tarot cards determine the odds of passing checks. Narrative choices can unlock tarot cards and change dialogue or how situations unfold.
Players who enjoy Sovereign Syndicate often praise its Victorian steampunk atmosphere, narrative investigation, and the different perspectives offered by its protagonists. Some also find the tarot checks and character-focused dialogue appealing. Other reviews describe the story as slow or repetitive, and disagree about how much choices affect its outcome.
