Announcing Forever Lost

June 8, 2022: Forever Lost, the multi-million download franchise, is coming back to PC. And it’s better than ever.

Remastered by the team at Altered Gene, the game has been rebuilt to transform the original 2D masterpiece into a 3D work of art. With improvements made to the game's accessibility, players will have even more reason to become immersed in the much-loved first person puzzle adventure.

“Collaborating with Des, one of my favourite people, was one of the easiest decisions I’ve made” said Graham Ranson, Co-Chief Person at Glitch Games. “We wanted to bring the game from 2D to 3D, add a host of accessibility options, and remaster the soundtrack, but didn’t want to do the work ourselves. It’s going to be ace.”

Forever Lost, a remake of the multi-million download mobile franchise, is coming to PC. And it’s better than ever.

You wake up in a dark, dingy room with no memory of who you are or how you got there. You have only one thought: escape.

Forever Lost is an escape room-style puzzle game. Examine clues and take pictures of them with your camera to use them later. Puzzles lead to more puzzles, which lead to explanations...or more questions. Leave no stone unturned on your journey to find out who you are and what has happened.

Featuring a streamlined story, all-new 3D art and animations, and a fresh soundtrack, this remake is the definitive way to experience Forever Lost.
