We have compiled a list of PC games about London, in which one of the most influential European cities will appear before you in a new light, and in some of them you yourself will become the builder of the British capital.
London is not just one of the oldest European capitals. It is a city whose streets hold memories of Roman and Scandinavian invaders, a city where the greatest figures in science and art lived and worked, a city where Sherlock Holmes conducted his investigations and Jack the Ripper killed, a city where puritanism and primness intertwined with extravagance and a rebellious spirit.
Frostpunk
At the end of the 19th century, Britain, like the rest of the world, was struck by disaster: a colossal snowstorm came from the north and destroyed everything in its path, leaving the entire country without food, and then a storm hit from the south. All this was the result of global cooling caused by volcanic emissions and the dimming of the Sun. Naturally, the starving population, with nothing left to lose, began to riot and destroy what nature had not already destroyed.
Sunless Sea
Queen Victoria sold her capital to the underground world to save Prince Albert. Now London continues to live its life, only underground, where no ray of sunlight reaches, and strange creatures roam the streets.

The Mummy Demastered

You are a trained ghost hunter working for Prodigium, a company that specialises in just such matters.
SimCity 3000, SimCity 2013
SimCity was the game that turned city-building simulators into a full-fledged genre. SimCity 3000 underwent significant changes compared to previous instalments in the series: the concept of waste management, farms and agricultural buildings was added, and the ability to interact with neighbouring cities appeared.
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate
The ninth instalment in the Assassin’s Creed series takes us to Victorian London, where twin assassins Jacob and Evie Frye continue their fight against the Templars and search for an ancient artefact – the Shroud of Eden.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes series
Although the most famous Englishman is merely a figment of a writer’s imagination, he has had a much greater impact on world culture than most real people.
The main series, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, from the Ukrainian studio Frogwares, includes many games, each of which is a separate chapter in the life of the brilliant detective Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend and assistant Dr. Watson, who investigate the terrible crimes taking place on the streets of respectable old London.
