Also idk if you read the “sequels” to Perdido but they’re good and Iron Council has some scenes in New Crobuzon

Didn’t know that—thanks! Always felt like it was a city that deserved more stories set in it.

Yeah there's a couple more! Mieville just recently said on a podcast that he hasn't returned to the setting because he sets a high bar for what merits a return (and also he described his earlier writerly self as more brash and edgy) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bas-Lag

Second for Disco Elysium. You can level up a skill that lets you kind of "feel" the city and see what's going elsewhere.

Also playing as a disaster-human detective is a great experience for anyone in the criminal justice space imo
