MULTI-LAYERED DIALOGUES
Navigate the high and low society of Portsmouth with help of a unique, multi-layered dialogue system allowing you to fully plan out and control the many dialogue challenges facing you on the way to get your revenge back. Build a vast network of friends, allies, business partners, enemies and rivals and maintain it in a constantly evolving political and business environment.
Your words and signs can charm, deceive, or intimidate—every choice shifts your standing and unlocks new narrative branches. Leverage secrets you uncover to manipulate rival factions, or broker fragile alliances that turn the tide in your favor. With reputation affecting every conversation, a single well-placed phrase – or even a single gesture – can spark an all-out turf war.
GANG MANAGEMENT
Manage your gang, its economy and activities, broker alliances or backstab your partners, work within Portsmouth’s balance of power or break it completely – the city can be yours. Engage in multiple sorts of criminal work, complete many different kinds of missions – rob, murder, steal, extort, swindle, profit from various vices like gambling, drinking and other obscenities.
Expand your empire by investing dirty money into front businesses that funnel resources straight back to your operations while keeping the law at bay. Dynamic territory control forces you to defend your turf at all times, seizing rival rackets or burning them to the ground when negotiations fail. Every decision reshapes the city’s underworld ecosystem, ensuring no two playthroughs unfold the same way.
CHOICE-BASED PLOT ARCHITECTURE
As a gang leader, Charity will also grow personally and meet multiple persons on her way – both friends and foes. Obscenities: Hell Hath no Fury offers a full RPG experience with engaging dialogues, captivating characters and multiple-choice plot – but mind, they will be final and have both short-range and plot-wide impact.
Shape her morality through tough choices that ripple across the narrative, transforming alliances and the city itself. Skill upgrades let you tailor Charity’s approach, from silver-tongued persuasion to ruthless efficiency, each unlocking unique story avenues.

The City of Ironclad Ships
The year is 1878, and the city of Portsmouth finds itself booming: the industrial revolution has expanded the city tenfold, and its port is one of Britain’s largest and busiest. Steam warships loom over docks while factories spill soot across roofs. The workers live in squalor, and the wealthy enjoy luxuries unknown to many.
Portsmouth attracts both rich and poor, flocking there in search of coin, power and better life.
A hundred thousand souls struggling in search of these bring opportunities you can seize.
