Forgotton Anne is a unique and strikingly cinematic experience, which makes a valiant attempt to unify the finesse of anime films with interactive gameplay.

Forgotton Anne would make a great two hours long anime. But as a game it's mediocre at best.

The harmony between puzzle solving and platforming is too great and coupled with its emotional and powerful story, Forgotten Anne doesn't disappoint in any way.

Forgotton Anne has more story than many games three times the price. It's a journey worth taking and a name worth remembering.

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.

Forgotton Anne is a charming little adventure, with an interesting, and good-looking, hand painted world that's fun to live on for the eight or so hours that this will last. Unfortunately, the story never really manages to become as emotional and engrossing as it thinks it is, and the rest of the experience, the actual jumping and puzzle-solving, feels more like useless baggage.

Forgotton Anne beautifully weaves 2D animation into a compelling adventure, that seems like fun but becomes something of a controller hassle from time to time

Don’t let that last statement deter you though, as I still adore this game. The story and characters are wonderful, and the music is absolutely breathtaking. Normally with games like this you only get about three to four hours of gameplay, but this game managed to rack up a full seven hours for me to beat. I still have the urge to go back and play it again just to get the other 14 or so achievements that I missed. At $19.99 this game is a must buy for anyone who loves a good story with some dark and soul-crushing undertones.

Forgotton Anne is a game that will make us fall in love with the visuals and will attract us with his plot and narrative. Join Anne in Forgotten Lands in this precious adventure while we try to do what we think is right to return home. Despite the small problem with control, the other areas are brilliants and make Anne's adventure a game that everyone should give a chance.

Forgotten Anne is a visual joy, that tells a meaningful story. While some story elements are predictable, and a few of the platforming moments are a little subpar, the package as a whole is one I would recommend to anyone...

This is one of the best 2D adventure games I've played in a long time. We play as Anne, a forgotling, forgotten child who's now grown up. We uncover the truth behind the city, the power and the Man to eventually make the final choice.

Despite Forgotton Anne failing to stand out in any particular area, it’s far from a bad game. At its best and worst, it’s a mediocre story game good for a few hours of playtime. If you’re a diehard fan of steampunk or visual novels, you can probably find some value in it. However, there are certainly better story-driven games to check out.

To conclude, I found this game to be a breath of fresh air. It's intricate storyline, puzzle solving and dynamic environment kept me interested from start to finish. I give this game a 9 for it was almost a masterpiece, but hopefully in future updates they can fix those small bugs.

Forgotten Anne is an Adventure-Platformer game that can offer a joyful experience. Although for a very small amount of time. The artistic design, compelling storytelling and lovely characters are some of the most important features of this game and they are the ones that ensure that Forgotten Anne remains gravitating for all gamers

Forgotton Anne provides escapism to a dark dystopian realm where you will question your own values in an amazing story-driven experience. The production value and experience is one that highly recommended.
