Description

It's been almost two years since rebel forces occupied the city and government forces surrounded and laid siege to your home. The city has been reduced to the prize in a tug-of-war between two equally vicious and uncaring factions. You don’t care about this war. It doesn’t matter who wins or loses anymore, if it ever did. All that matters to you is that your home, the place you grew up and built your life, is being torn apart, day by day, brick by brick. You just want this war to end before there’s nothing left to fight over.

You’ve found each other amidst the chaos: close family, estranged relations, lovers, rivals, old friends, and new. Now you work together to keep each other safe. Each night, a couple of you go out, risking shelling and snipers to scavenge for supplies, while someone stays awake to keep watch over your shelter. Most of the time it's quiet and you've been lucky so far, but winter is fast approaching and people are getting more desperate every day.

**The Forgotten** follows a number of civilians trapped within a vicious war that rages around them. Over the course of the game, days and nights will pass in a blur as you will risk everything to survive the ruthless battles that surround you.
