Hey all,
I was just wondering, have any of you tried the game Unhallowed Metropolis? and if you have, what did you think of it?
Personally, i have recently bought the book and as far as i can tell without having actually tried the game, it's really awesome. And even if you are too busy creating campaigns to actually play the game, the book itself remains a great source of inspiration.
The game is set in an alternative "future", on the british isles, where a zombie plague swept across the globe in 1905, pretty much freezing the progress of the world in the Victorian Age. So essentially, this is Victorian Steampunk Horror/intrigue with zombies. And no, it is not as stupid as it might sound: the book maintains a dark and credible twist and tone all the way through. And the game system that comes along with the setting is quite nice and simplistic if you ask me. Simple rules, yet enough rules to provide the characters with a lot of ways to modify their characters.
So i will highly recommend taking a look at this to all of you.

Sounds cool. Cool name, too.
