The Forgotten City

Has an incredible story and a fascinating mystery to uncover. The time-loop mechanic is brilliantly used, and every new loop gives you more information to piece everything together. The exploration, characters and atmosphere make it really hard to put down. One of those games I wish I could experience again for the first time.

Good time

很有趣，但是對路痴來說一開始真的是迷路迷到頭昏眼花 觸發黃金法則後一直找不到回傳送門的路… 冒險的部分不會太難 每個角色的支線任務環環相扣 一開始會有點茫茫然，多死幾次就熟悉了 [spoiler] 攻略說結局三可以先讓加列里烏斯幫忙做支線任務 當選行政官放出杜利後再叫他遇到地震召集所有人可達成三的完美結局 但是我開頭叫他做支線任務當選行政官後 沒有找到叫他召集所有人的選項，不知道是不是我哪裡漏掉了 [/spoiler]

Absolut geile Story :)

Настоящий нелинейный сюжет в купе с нетипичными механиками временной петли на пару вечеров делают игру захватывающим приключением...

Dies Marmotae Romae The Forgotten City is a very good game, especially considering it was created by such a small team. I had played the precursor when it was a mod for Skyrim a while back. The full game is of course more sophisticated. The story is great (a bit of spoilers here), but at times a little predictable, no real twists there. The setting is refreshing with culturally diverse cast (in the sense that the roman empire was a cultural amalgamation). What I found a bit disappointing that, if I understood the story correctly, it should also have been possible for the cast to be far more temporally diverse. Most characters seem to have entered the city in the year 64 AD or before. It could have been possible to have more recent characters, for example someone from the 19th century with knowledge of the industrial revolution. This could have made for interesting conversations. But that’s just nitpicking on my side. The gameplay loop is very rewarding, especially when you can start to take advantage of previous knowledge. Feels a lot like speedrunning, which of course you can also easily do (ending 1 of 4 took me 5 minutes to reach). So, there are a total of four endings of which ending 4 is the one where you'll learn the most about the world. Endings 2 and 3 are somewhere in between 1 and 4 in sense of accomplishment and time invested. Obviously the first playthrough usually takes the longest, as you'll have to learn the ropes (it took me 8 hours to finish). Technically the game runs very smoothly, and I only witnessed very minor issues with delayed texture loading (might be a hardware problem on my part) and one instance of Sentius temporarily getting stuck on a fury right before reaching Proserpina’s temple which was a bit worrying. All that said, you should give this game a try if you like story driven video games at all. Honor Creatori

8/10.总得来说是很值得体验的一款解谜游戏。 在剧情设计和体验上很棒，最好的设计就是每次循环获得的物品可以保留下来，这极大程度的消减了重复流程带来的疲惫感，并且还能基于这个特点找到许多捷径。通关后我十分确定，同样是能够循环，我就是比486强太多了 对于个人而言不好的地方有两点，1是画质确实有点粗糙，这是受制于这个游戏的投入规模，没有办法；2是在视角上，我从最开始到通关，始终有3D眩晕感，这在其他第一人称rpg上很少出现。不知道是帧数还是其他原因，总之很难受，这个点得扣1.5分。我自己的解决方案是把视角进一步向广角调整，这样能稍微缓解，供有相同感受的朋友参考
