THE FORGOTTEN CITY has been out since 2021, and it was a Skyrim mod before that, but my youngest daughter’s been after me to play it so today’s the day.
Now I’m completely hooked and loving it. It’s a narrative-driven time travel mystery adventure. Lots of talking and walking, tons of history and mythology, and a general creepy vibe.
This is the video of my first time-loop day. I’m planning to make a video of each game day until I finish. There are multiple endings, so I might reload and try to get more than one.
THE FORGOTTEN CITY is rated “T” for teens, due to alcohol references, blood, mild language, suggestive themes and violence.
UPDATE AUG 12, 2025: This turned out to be one of the best games I’ve ever played. It took me about 14 hours total to see all four endings, though it would probably go a lot faster for someone who’s not trying to record intros and outros, read lore out loud, react, and all that stuff I do for YouTube videos.
Fantastic game. I cried at the canon ending. Well-written, great voice acting, tons of fun, loads of history and mythology, and no major bugs, far as I could tell. Bethesda Game Studios should hire these people to work on The Elder Scrolls VI.
