Before I Forget

Short & Sweet: Before I Forget is a short narrative gem from 3-Fold Games. “We wanted to have some aspects that indicated Sunita’s Indian heritage apart from her name, and I actually did this piece of art in a little bit of software that came on my Galaxy phone, [...] so this is my homage, my paltry homage - to a really fantastic Indian - female Indian - painter [...] called Amrita Sher-Gil.” Before I Forget comes with a free Developers’ Commentary, which you can activate from the game’s loading screen. As you explore Sunita’s house, listen to thought-provoking interviews with the game devs as they analyse their creative processes, reveal secrets, and much more. As you wander from room to room, you discover mysterious objects, each holding a fleeting, fragmented memory. A tattered 2-year-old calendar. Delicate, moving, and atmospheric, it examines the emotional impact of dementia. “Is this the right place?...What did I come out here for?” A plaintive theme on the piano. The taste of stale air. The game-world of Before I Forget is expressive, detailed, and rich with backstory, taking you on a profound emotional journey. Story Rich: Sunita’s house is a treasure-trove of faded memories. Vocal Talent: Featuring a vivid cast of voice actors, breathing life into Sunita and her memories. Before I Forget is a story-rich, first-person exploration game from 3-Fold Games. A game about dementia and what happens when you can't hold onto the things you've done or the people you've loved. With an average playtime of 1 hour, it’s designed to be experienced in one sitting. You are Sunita - a woman living with early onset dementia. Examine faded postcards, scribbled notes, photographs, and more to uncover Sunita’s past, piece together her life-story, and understand her present. A narrative exploration that examines a world where memories are constantly fading and jumbled. 3-Fold Games are a small but mighty micro-studio from game developers Claire Morwood & Chella Ramanan. Musical refrains that search and wind like an old memory. A woman alone in a house. (Including Anjali Kunapaneni & Bushra Laskar) Original Soundtrack: Elegant piano melodies guide you through Sunita's internal and external worlds, with an all-original score from composer, Dave Tucker. Explore the present to uncover the past, in a short story of love and loss and a life well-lived. Dedicated to telling diverse stories from underrepresented perspectives, the creative duo make it their mission to create games which give voice to individuals/groups who are often excluded from game narratives. A mystery and a love story. A woman is in her house, alone, and her mind holds a mystery...
