====== Echo Bazaar ======
Launched in 2009 by Failbetter Games, later renamed to //Fallen London//. As an experiment in interactive narrative, I'd call this a mixed success.  Though I do get a strong sense that the story is my own, the game quickly falls into a grinding pattern, and it's easy to find oneself stuck without access to new content before committing to hours of repeating content to get large quantities of items.  I'd really like to rework some of the concepts here into a card game.
