The first time I played it, I found a way to distract it that worked, as you’ll come across, but the second time (when recording for the gameplay), I accidentally brought the cow to the attention of a potential mate… it didn’t work, but it did make me giggle. One of the five items lands on a cow in the field. There’s also brief ‘tasks’, such as when you visit Ethan’s house, his mum’s washing flies off the line, and you and Ethan have to go chasing after it when it lands. Quite often, this can feel like a game you just walk through, but with occasional choices, such as Before Your Eyes, but where that one excelled and which this one falters, is that that one had the voices of the characters reading out the dialogue, rather than it just appearing onscreen and having to be clicked through. It was a massive house which I’d love to revisit, but only if I could do so again at that age… which I can’t. As he recalls his life spent there over the years, this game is about time flying by without us realising, and I certainly feel that a lot of the time, especially the older I get, and reminiscing about the house I grew up in, until the age of 11. Forgotten Fields feels less a game, and more an experience, as you watch what happens to your character, Sid, a young man who writes fantasy stories, but for whom is suffering from a touch of writer’s block.Īt the same time, he’s about to reconnect with his oldest friend, Ethan, whilst visiting the family home for the last time before his mother sells it.
