The game is set in a hidden dimension known as the “Forgotton Realm” – a place where items lost or forgotten in the real world such as socks, lamps, toys etc. end up and come to life, becoming “Forgotlings”. You will take on the role of Anne, an enforcer whose responsibility is to maintain order in the realm. Now, you must set out to put an end to a rebellion that might prevent you from finding a way to return to the human world. Naturally, this will be a journey fraught with danger and story-changing decisions. Every conversation can branch in a several different ways, so every single one of your choices matters.

It is absolutely gorgeous, and the soaring orchestral score present throughout only serves to make things even better.

The gameplay is a perfect mix of 2D platforming and puzzle solving. Most of your in-game time will be spent figuring out ways to navigate challenges and riddles with your magical capabilities and exploring the environment to uncover hidden secrets. On top of that, the iOS version will support cloud saving and includes a whopping 33 pieces of artwork for you to collect, so it’ll surely entertain you for a quite a long while.
