Iron Gears is based in a Victorian era steam-punk adventure about a young eccentric inventor, with a unique gift of clairvoyance, holds onto a dark past of death and forbidden practices. When a childhood friend is abducted, he takes on his depraved persona Ghoul, a jack-of-all-trades of the criminal underground, and allies himself with his natural enemy, an Imperial Spy. Together, with the help of a brass feline containing the soul of a former lover, they unwittingly uncover a grotesque conspiracy to plunge the world into a new kind of war.
