It’s 1831 in Nottingham. King George IV died the previous year and King William IV is yet to be crowned, triggering the dissolving of parliament and a general election that leaves the city on the brink of riots. The Reform Bill leads to civil disturbances across the country when The House of Lords blocks a motion by parliament to give more men the vote than just nobility and landowners.
You find yourself in Nottingham's Narrowmarsh, a cramped, smelly slum rife with criminal activity. The local constable has found you at the site of a Reform Bill riot where a local pub was set ablaze. Two people lost their lives, and you are the central suspect. You are accused of arson and manslaughter. If found guilty, the punishment is hanging.
Finally, it is worth noting that some rooms may not be suitable for all age groups and abilities, so have a browse and make sure to choose the right adventure for your team!
