As the title indicates I’m looking for a game set in some version of a fantastical version Victorian time period, like the Carnival Row or Penny Dreadful tv shows. I’m pretty flexible on system and tone, though I do want some sort of system in place as I’ve had some bad experiences with freeform.

Take a look at the free quickstart for Clockwork: Dominion and let me know if the system and setting suit you.

Well, I've been considering running a Fantastical Savage Worlds game set in something akin to the Dystopian Age setting:

They also have a variant that focusses more heavily on the Wild West:

If either of those sound somewhat interesting to you, then I might be able to organise something.

 I was a huge fan of Penny Dreadful. Been a huge fan of of Cthulhu by gaslight.

 The entire Victorian period, cries out for a rp world.

 I hope you find a game you want, Crownblade.

Sounds interesting, though I have not tried Savage Worlds, nor read anything involving Dystopian Age, so there would definitely be a learning curve involved for me. The setting seems very steampunk?

Me too :)

I'm not nearly experienced enough in the system to GM but I'd like to try a Victorian era Savage Worlds game as a player. :)

Still looking.

Hi there!

Any preference between monster hunting / investigation? Carnival Row and Penny Dreadful tend more towards the latter than the former if I'm remembering correctly (though it's been a minute since watching them).

 I would love to do a Penny Dreadful type Victorian setting.
