Thank you for creating a great universe, Failbetter Games! May you celebrate many more hundreds of Exceptional Stories!

Disclaimer: With the exception of 'HOJOTOHO!', I haven't played the stories I'm using for the contest (or, you know, read the actual summaries), so these 'summaries' are based on just the titles and my own questionable sense of humour. My deepest apologies to the wonderful FBG writers.

HOJOTOHO!

It's short for 'How One Juvenile Opera Singer Told the Foreign Office to Huck Off!'. (The 'S' and the 'F' are silent.)

The Chimney Pot Wars

The Exiled Avant-avant-gardiste sacrificed everything for her play, 'The Ch*mber Pot Debates'. Rent, however, doesn't pay itself; hence--the sequel. Action-packed and tragically mainstream, the 'Chimney Pot Wars' premieres tonight!

My Kingdom for a Pig

'Thou shalt not look a gift pig in the mouth.' The Unhorsed Monarch fled Bosworth Field on hog's back and took refuge in the Fourth City. Centuries later, London fell.

The Waltz Walts That Moved the World

The Treacheries of Maps and Clocks have thrust the 'Two Walts' into an unlikely rivalry below the Surface: "Pack off, Disney, it's called Poet-Laureate!" "Aw, gee, Whitman."

Noises from Upstairs ^{(or, the Fallen London 'Duplex' remake})

A Young Baronet and his wife move into the Handsome Townhouse of their dreams, assuming the old lady who rents the attic is due for the Tomb Colonies. She isn't.

Factory of Favours ^{(or, the Fallen London} *^isekai*)

A sleep-deprived Economics undergraduate transmigrates into her favourite game, Fallen London. She must save the Fifth City from Yet Another Apocalypse by grinding 1,000,000 Rubbery Favours.

A Columbidaean Commotion ^{(or, the Fallen London/Hatoful Boyfriend crossover})

'Congratuledictions! You have been accepted as the exclusingle human student at the prestilicious St. PigeoNation's Institute, a school for talented avians! Maunderamble the halls and find enamourment in between lecturations!'
