Forgotlings

Forgotlings is a cinematic, story-driven action-adventure set in the Forgotten Lands, a world where lost objects such as toys, letters and single socks become conscious creatures called forgotlings. You play as Fig, a once-forgotten posing doll and captain of the sentient lightship Volare. As shadows stir and ancient divisions threaten the land, you sail across its skies and forgotten cities, seeking to unite its warring tribes.

The Forgotten Lands

Forgotlings have faint memories of their past lives and seek meaning and belonging. The five tribes have distinct histories and beliefs:

• Videra: Scholars and keepers of knowledge who live in Bygone Park. They study the heavens and earth, believing that understanding the past helps shape the future.
• Aufero: Innovators and engineers from Watchtown who pursue technological progress, sometimes at the cost of tradition.
• Servus: Residents of Shelter Island who find purpose in serving, protecting and uplifting others, and value compassion.
• Sonavi: Adventurous explorers from the Falls who seek to map and connect every part of the Forgotten Lands.
• Karus: Spiritual inhabitants of the Mangroves who seek enlightenment beyond the material world and aim to merge with the anima stream, the land’s life force.

Choices and diplomacy

Your decisions shape Fig’s journey, relationships and the fate of the Forgotten Lands. A dialogue wheel helps you navigate tense encounters, persuade forgotlings to join your cause and settle disputes. You can also earn the five tribes’ trust and respect as you travel through their lands.

INA, a strategic board game inspired by chess and Go, offers a way to get to know fellow forgotlings or ease tensions. The game is cherished as a means of bringing unity to a divided world.

Combat and exploration

Sail the skies aboard Volare and defend settlements from bandits. In combat, you can charge into hack-and-slash fights or use sneak attacks from the shadows. Forging bonds with forgotlings unlocks powerful upgrades, and a Story Mode lets you focus on the narrative.

Animation and sound

The world is brought to life through hand-crafted, frame-by-frame animation. A full voice cast and a score featuring the choir ensemble Theatre of Voices accompany the story.
