Forgotten Grounds

The wilderness was supposed to be a place to disappear.

Instead, it became a place where daylight can kill you.

Forgotten Grounds is a top-down pixel-art survival game about enduring an isolated wilderness with a lethal sun allergy. Shelter protects you from the sun, but running out of supplies gives you a reason to leave. Every expedition is a balance between what you need and what you can risk.

► Choose Your Moment

Daylight is a threat, not a promise of safety. Plan your journeys around shadows, shelter, and changing weather. Night and bad weather can offer relief from the sun, but bring dangers of their own.

► Explore What Remains

Follow roads through the wilderness, search abandoned buildings, and discover places hidden away from familiar routes. Learn where to find supplies, where to recover, and which journeys are worth the risk.

► Prepare for the Next Journey

Gather resources, craft essential tools, and keep your equipment in working condition. Find food, collect water, and decide what deserves a place in your backpack. What you bring can matter as much as where you go.

► You Are Not Alone

Watch for predators and choose your response carefully. Keep your distance, hold wolves back with a burning torch, or defend yourself with a bow. If they get too close, you may have to fight for your life.

► Make This Life Last

Hunger, thirst, exhaustion, illness, and declining sanity can turn a manageable journey into a desperate search for safety. Treat your injuries, make time to recover, and know when to turn back.

Death is permanent. Your journey ends when you die.

In a wilderness where death is the only ending, how long can you survive?
