6 itemsAbout the Game
I Was Lost is an upcoming game that combines 2D mazes, sliding puzzles, and narrative to create a unique experience. In it, each level is made from a poem's verse unraveling as you progress through the game. Control not only your position on the board but also move walls to create new paths and escape from seemingly impossible situations.
The experience was designed thinking on accessibility and includes:
Change board letters to numbers if you don't understand the language
Speed regulation to avoid abrupt movements or to speedrun
Color palettes accessible for different types of daltonism
One-hand control scheme and key-binding
Available in English and Portuguese
With the level editor, you have the opportunity of telling your own stories and share them on our Discord Community with players all around the world!
