Lady Smythe’s husband, the Fourth Earl of Tadbury, has disappeared in mysterious circumstances, along with their capable secretary, Mrs. Winchester. Lady Smythe traced their whereabouts to the country estate of Lord Fothergill, an irascible scoundrel with an unsavoury reputation.

Having accepted her adversary’s challenge to a deadly duel, Lady Smythe walks out to meet the nefarious nobleman on the field of honour. Shall she yet survive to see her husband and the formidable Mrs. Winchester again?

Beautiful idea an execution. I like it very much! Looking forward for more levels/battles!

P.S. When in fullscreen audio has some issues.

Thanks a lot! We're still thinking about ways to continue this story so stay tuned!

Performance on the web can be a little slow, depending on the browser and what else is going on, and if the framerate drops the audio can break up. It sounds like going into full-screen pushed it over the edge on your computer. The desktop version shouldn't have this problem

It’s too cool to end so quickly. In a state of frenzied delight, I demand the continuation of the banquet!

Thanks enotofil! We plan to do something with it so stay tuned!
