Storyline

The mystical wards, which protected London, have failed. Shadows whisper of a curse. Demonic mumblings gather in dead ends and the narrowest alleys. Something has stirred vengeful spirits and damned this place. Occultists have dabbled too deeply, for too long, into forbidden secrets. 

You have been hired by the Black Lighthouse, a secret organization working under MI5, to locate the broken wards and decipher the cause of London's impending collapse into the abyss. 
Agent, save our souls!

Not easy to follow. Some directions are incorrect. The gate to enter to one of the church was closed and you should enter inside of another church but the rules says you play the game outdoor without entering to any building.
