Critic Reviews
- Forgotton Anne is the mobile port of an award-winning story-based adventure game set in a surreal world, where everyday objects lost or forgotten by their owners come alive.
Alex Sem · Dec 21, 2020 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Forgotton Anne offers a deep story set in an immersive dystopian land. With puzzles, platforming action, and tough choices, Forgotton Anne is a must-play game.
Jack Brassell · Jan 25, 2020 Reviewed on AndRead full review - Although it doesn’t end in an especially satisfying way, I still really enjoyed my time with Forgotton Anne. It builds a really cool world and animates it beautifully. It even contains quite a few touching character moments and explores interesting ideas. These things are rare in games, particularly on the App Store, so its flaws are worth looking past.
Campbell Bird · Jul 01, 2019 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Overall, Forgotton Anne is a beautiful, atmospheric game that literally transports you to another world in a mesmerising way. With some excellent cinematic techniques, you’ll feel like you’re playing a role in a movie. If you’re a fan of Studio Ghibli movies, this is one game you should absolutely play.
Jemma Casson · Dec 04, 2018 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Forgotton Anne is an evocative, artistic triumph that nails that feeling of a ‘living anime’. Sure, the puzzles are hardly mind-blowing, and some later sections may test your patience, but the beauty of the art and the gentle humour of the writing should carry you through these irritations. Animation buffs should dive in without reservation, and we’d recommend anyone with even the slightest interest check this out.
Gavin Lane · Nov 09, 2018 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - The adventure gamer’s platformer, Forgotton Anne’s endearing exploration of lost objects come to life is sure to please all but the most dexterously challenged.
Richard Hoover · Jul 09, 2018 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The art style, fluidity of animation, and overall tone of the experience are beautifully conceived and enchanting to the degree I wanted to see every area and meet all of the Forgotlings along the way. Forgotton Anne is slow and clunky and a bit frustrating at times, but it has its heart in the right place when it comes to story, which challenges the player morally and concludes with a satisfying choice.
Andrew Reiner · May 29, 2018 Reviewed on XB1 - Forgotton Anne houses a gorgeously fitting art direction that’s not too dissimilar to Laputa: Castle in the Sky. This design sits extraordinarily well with its carefully crafted platforming and puzzle elements, collectively putting forward a wonderful adventure that never loses its grip. The dialogue may well be hit and miss at times, but the overarching plot is captivating, well paced and thoroughly entertaining.
Mark Sherwood · May 15, 2018 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - I wanted to spend more time there just like I wanted to spend more time in the world of Spirited Away. I wanted to find out even more about the Forgotten Lands—like, what do they eat?—and was happy to simply be in those places, even if the controls weren't perfect and some of the dialogue missed the mark.
Jody Macgregor · May 15, 2018 Reviewed on PCRead full review - I don’t want to spoil the story, as unravelling it is surely the draw of Forgotton Anne, but it’s sufficiently captivating without ever being too over the top; it really is the sort of narrative you can imagine playing out in a Ghibli film. Throughline Games really ought to be applauded; Forgotton Anne is something rather special. If this is the calibre of the studio’s first game, I really can’t wait to see what else it comes up with.
