At the time the industrial
revolution was in full swing, the British Empire was at
its peak. As the premiere world power, England's model of
wealth and modernity radiated throughout the world.
However, Whitechapel District, in the East End of London,
hardly reflected this brilliant reality.
Whitechapel was
the capital's most squalid neighborhood. Within its
boundaries lived England's worst rabble including
alcoholics, beggars, prostitutes…as well as a large
community of Jewish immigrants fleeing Eastern Europe's
ever growing anti-Semitism. In this terrible hole of
misery, tens of thousands of people lived crammed within a
maze of narrow, sinister, stinky streets overshadowed by
fog. To deal with the poverty, the government created
Public Work Houses in an attempt to manage the masses.
It's within this
sinister set, faithfully rendered in all its details and
similar to a macabre playground that you'll have to
investigate and track Jack the Ripper's bloody trail and
solve one of the greatest mysteries of crime. |
