Comments on I, the Forgotten One for Android

★★★★★ James Martin · Sep 5, 2025
Literally cannot rate this game/book high enough. What an emotional rollercoaster, amazing characters that you build such a deep connection with that it truly hurts for anything to happen to them, fight through thick and thin for them... or stab them in the back and claim the throne for yourself, upto you really. But honestly wow, this is one of the best things I've ever played / read.
★★★★★ Evan Joad · Nov 27, 2023
This has to be one of the best written stories I have ever read, it's an excellent game. It's one of the most accurate depictions of the brutality and horror of medieval combat and a fantastically gripping story at the same time. It's the most authentic portrayal of combat induced PTSD I've ever read, and it truly puts you in the shoes of your character. I'm so honestly impressed by this game, it's amazingly done, and I cannot wait to read the sequel!
★☆☆☆☆ Filipp · Jan 31, 2024
I bought full v. The writing is poor. Excessive description, with every little action being narrated, and too much injection of humor. The behavior all seems unnatural. It's very difficult to get immersed as the writing constantly takes me out if it. Way too much writing for what is occurring. I know because I've suffered this exact issue when writing. Note to Author: Create images, NOT explanations. There is so much of that going on here. So much filler. Bland humor. Should've gone for gritty.
★★☆☆☆ Charlize Hardjosampurno · Dec 27, 2023
It's good, that's true, but I really dislike the fact that they didn't say this is just book one of an entire series until after I bought and finish the game firt. They should have included that in the description.

Description by Hosted Games Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
The king is dead. The country is wracked by rebellion. And an old comrade from your past has returned to claim the crown for himself.

I, the Forgotten One is a 450,000-word interactive novel by John Louis. It's entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your
imagination.

You are the late king's eldest child and royal bastard. Disinherited and tossed aside, you were sent off as a child to fight in the distant frontier of the kingdom, to die forgotten
and unknown.

You, however, survived, and have been shaped into an instrument of war.

With the realm now in turmoil, you have been called upon to once more bloody your blade.

You must restore peace by any means necessary.

Even as you feel yourself slipping deeper and deeper into a pit of despair.

* Play as a man or woman
* Immerse yourself in a world whose perceptions change based on your chosen physicality
* Specialize in three separate aspects of medieval war
* Choose from three different fighting styles which are further influenced by your physical attributes
* Meet a wide cast of characters, from the mother that disowned you to your surrogate father
* Fall down three separate mental paths
* Sustain your relationship with your family, or let it collapse all together
* Experience the brutal realities of war and its consequences on the mind

Above all, find purpose and hope—before you shatter for good.
