Game Description
The Forgotten City is a narrative mystery adventure set inside a hidden Roman settlement governed by the Golden Rule: if one person commits a serious sin, every inhabitant dies. Trapped in a repeating time loop, the player investigates the residents, explores ruins, gathers evidence and uses knowledge from previous loops to change events. Dialogue choices, moral dilemmas and multiple endings make investigation and deduction more important than combat.
