About the Game

“Call of the Forgotten” is a hand-drawn point-and-click adventure set in a dark cyberpunk world — infused with cosmic horror.

Nyra van Dyke has seen better days. The former hunter for the corporation Stellar Solutions is now scraping by as a freelancer when her former colleague and team leader, August Becker, suddenly reappears and offers her a job. Corporate employee Gideon Langley has vanished from his apartment, and Nyra is tasked with finding him. She agrees — but can she really trust August?

Meanwhile, Gideon is trying to uncover why parts of his memory are missing — and why he is haunted by terrifying nightmares. Could these horrifying visions be a malfunction of his augmentations, or is something else hiding behind them — something unknown lurking in the shadows?
