Reviews
I don't write reviews for many games, but I wanted to take the time to say that The Forgotten City is a game that should not be slept on, nor should it be forgotten. This is a spoiler free review. When I started this game, I didn't really know what to expect. I hadn't done any research on it, and I think I had received it in a bundle. Honestly, I don't even remember where I received it. But I'm glad I did. I'd been sick and out of work for the past week, and took some time to explore games I hadn't played. I saw this one in my library, read the steam page, and gave it a play. Every choice you make matters, and actually impacts the game in meaningful and thoughtful ways. The developers took a long time creating a well thought out, well developed story to carry you through a land of mystery, intrigue and suspense. You will genuinely grow attached to characters, and be surprised to learn the truths at the center. I look forward to hopefully seeing more from this developer in the future, and have to say well done to making a game that I will never be able to forget.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game has REPLAY value, jk good game with a deep story recommended
Great little indie title. I figured out the story fairly quickly, but it was still enjoyable. I'm looking forward to seeing what their next project is like.
10000/10
在漫长的历史长河中,人们自然会对自己的存在产生许多幻想,而这种幻想会不可抑制地带来对于社会约束的不满与犯罪欲望的激增,这个游戏对我而言,其沉浸式的神话故事体验自然算是一个有趣的点,但对比其他游戏来说,这并不足以让我为它写下一篇好评,真正打动了我的,是在游戏中那潜藏在一个个选项与抉择下的“希望”二字,主创通过哲学视角铺展开一幅神话的瑰丽画卷,当你在其中思考、感悟、感触时,你会看见有人在被压迫却仍坚持积极生活,你会看见有人不问来由地为他人拼命奔走,你还会看见一切行为只为自己的自私之徒,也会看见生来便无法自制想偷窃的可悲之人,这一切,都发生在一个连自身存在都无法确定的社会中,但即便如此,这一群善恶有分的人,依然坚持着自己这不见终点的生活,直至黎明的到来,他们不知道这是神话,但他们只是如此充满希望地活着,这令我太感动了。
I started the game like 5 times never able to play more than 15 minutes. Once I got past those 15 minutes I couldn't put it down. Finished the game in one sitting.
Una joya
I just finished the game (got the true ending) and wow this game was fun. I was hesitant to try it because i worried the statues would be like weeping angles and that there would be much more horror- luckily i pushed through and its really tame on that front. The game itself is great and i love that they let you short cut tasks when you loop through time. The puzzles weren't very difficult, but thats fine by me. I hate when a puzzle isn't reliably able to be solved in game, and there was no point here where i felt i needed to research the answer. and everything had logical solutions. The game doesn't hold your hand much either, and there are options to turn off hints if you truly want to do it alone. There were definitely a lot of great "Aha!" moments that make puzzle games worth it. I love that this game wasn't afraid to go crazy, i was a lot more immersed in this game and its characters than i expected and plenty of times that i was shocked in the late game. I think i'll definitely revisit the game soon to see what the other 3 endings entail. Highly recommended if you don't mind a short, contained story.
