Your mother, Polly, has landed herself in hot water not just for her debauched profession but also in making the headlines as the first victim of a gruesome murder.

[h1][i][b]A boys' love murder mystery set in late ’80s London referencing Jack the Ripper’s cases and real life people involved at the time.[/b][/i][/h1] [h1]The Frying Pan:[/h1] [i][b]It’s another foggy day in Whitechapel, a truly chilling location in many senses – as it is the core of recently occurred murders. Eddy Nichols is currently performing solo investigations regarding the first victim of the ongoing femicide, none less than his mother, Polly Nichols, who was recently murdered. The latest location she is confirmed to have been spotted at is a local pub called The Frying Pan. Eddy is there to get some useful information regarding the case and decides to approach a prostitute ring who were strict acquaintances of his mother, a former prostitute. One of the women recounts of having met Eddy’s mother during wee hours of morning, mentioning she was seeking for one more client in order to pay her overnight stay at someplace. After a while the prostitutes begin to mock our main character by using flirty tones, and it is exactly there that a tall man approaches you in order to take off from the scene at hand. He presents himself as William J. Burns, an American investigator w…

[I] Lurkers [/i] is a historical detective BL visual novel. The story has all the tags I absolutely adore buut...I'm afraid it's gonna be a neutral review. I'm a bit hesitant if I should recommend this game, so let me leave it to your own decision. Again :D Why I choose the thumb up for my neutral opinion: +BL VN. This reason is enough XD More. Please, create more similar content! \o/ So much appreciated. You can't even imagine how grateful I am. (☆_☆) +I was always fond of history. At first as school subject, then reading historical novels. My history teacher was kind to invite me to her house and share her books with me. Historical films, novels... Anything related to factual events is immensely captivating, immediately changing the story to smth so much more impressive. You realize it's not just author's imagination. It actually HAPPENED. Or at least partially. It doesn't matter. It still makes the whole experience so much more immersive. In this case it's British criminal history. (♥ω♥*) I guess everyone heard about Jack the Ripper, infamous for his gory deeds, never caught and as a result so alluring. I was enthusiastic to read a BL about THAT! https://steamcommunity.com/sh…

Sweet, short, cute, mostly linear with some gory details. In the book... Majority of the time it's "catching the bad guy", lil fluff romance and not much information about the characters at all. (Like one or two things...) The best part in all of this was: I asked the bad guy one question, something akin to "did you do it?" -> And he goes "duh!" (I edited his words). Such a proud criminal. Lol. So, overall, it ain't bad. I just wish we had more details to put the depth into characters and such, but oh well. If you are in the mood for some quick BL read? A mystery might await you.

Short VN. Easy Achievements, 100% / ~10min.

My first impression of the game was it was bugged... And I was very dissapointed, because Spanish texts were missing. But after playing it in English I think the minor errors (like an achievement not popping) do not affect the quality of the game so much. The graphics are not that pretty compared to other games (even from Ertal Games), but it does not need it, I think this is a short visual novel where you can experience a good piece of Victorian Age London, so I think this is a 6 out of 10.
