1879
In a steam-powered Victorian British Empire, a portal known as the Rabbit Hole connects London to the Grosvenor Land, a distant world of fertile plains, towering mountains, giant insects, and ancient Babylonian science. Players navigate conflicts involving the Babylonians, their strange science zombies, and Saurid tribes who ride theropods and pteranodons, while clockwork computing, micro-steam engines, and airships shape life back on Earth.
