Story

Pulled from the comfortable surroundings of your village constabulary and recruited into a shadowy government agency, you are drawn into an inexplicable mystery of disappearing townsfolk and strange sentient mechanical contraptions. Slowly you uncover a sinister plot that appears to have no aim nor instigators. Who is behind these atrocities in Victorian England? and what is the Traction Edge?
