Although it’s shed its ties to the fictional lore of the man and mer of Tamriel, The Forgotten City has adopted the real mythologies of ancient civilizations, elevating the original concept to an enthralling new level that will excite anyone with an interest in empires of eras past. Originally an award-winning mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim downloaded over 3 million times, The Forgotten City was further developed from its tethered roots to a standalone game by a core team of three friends over four years. The last time I’ve felt this way about a game was Disco Elysium I’ve found that feeling again in The Forgotten City. A game that offers up its secrets through careful observation and exploration, but leaves plenty for the player to ponder long after the controller has been put away. Every once in a while, a game comes along that feels bigger than it really is - impossibly vast despite its fixed map, deeper than its delivered dialogue, and far richer than its pricepoint would lead anyone to believe.
