Forgotten 23 overview
The Forgotten, a remote space station over Proxima Centauri b, is broadcasting a distress signal. With its orbit decaying, it's a matter of time until it crashes into the surface of the planet below. Only one person can avert a catastrophe: Engineer Max Novak, who just arrived at the station aboard a rescue ship and is immediately thrown into a life or death situation: The station’s crew has disappeared without a trace and the station is about to deorbit.
Max is caught in a relentless time loop with just 23 minutes until the Forgotten crashes into the surface of the planet—each cycle resetting just before the catastrophic descent. Every loop reveals new clues and challenges, pushing him closer to unlocking the station’s hidden secrets.
Forgotten 23 is a dark sci-fi adventure where time is on your side - until it isn't. Navigate the station, master its secrets, and avert catastrophe before time runs out... Permanently.
FEATURES:
- Gritty sci-fi adventure set on a remote research station around Proxima Centauri b, where nothing is what it seems and everything is suspect. What is the source of the time loops? What's their relation to the planet? Just what or who is responsible?
- Deep story layered with intrigue, tension, and unspeakable secrets better left forgotten. What happened here? Can you trust the sole survivor, the Luna AI controlling the space station? Just what kind of forces are at play here?
- Eight researchers worked on a secretive research project, away from prying eyes and human colonies. All eight have disappeared and it's up to you to help Max discover the reason behind their vanishing - and learn all about their lives, fears, and hopes regarding the secrets of Proxima Centauri b.
- Unique time loop-based gameplay requiring you to master the station's layout, mechanics, and secrets to progress in every 23-minute loop. Every loop is a step forward - but are they truly loops? The station changes slightly with every one, bringing with it new challenges - and new threats to solve.
- Complex puzzles require careful thinking, use of the environment, and clever crafting using extremely limited supplies. Fix malfunctioning subsystems, debug broken robots, deal with corrosive poisons in the air that can penetrate your space suit - and worse.
- An uniquely Polish take on the sci-fi genre, inspired by classics of the sci-fi genre, including the seminal works of Stanisław Lem.
