Forgotton Anne
One of your earliest objectives in Forgotton Anne is to locate a pair of mechanical wings. There’s a bit of pomp and circumstance to their unveiling: a tacit assurance that this delicately handcrafted piece of engineering will be significant in some way. Not so. Anne’s wings are required, certainly, functioning as a jump extender when her natural spring isn’t sufficient to reach a higher platform or cross a longer gap. But that’s all they are, the kind of underwhelming optional upgrade you’d find in any common-or-garden Metroidvania, except this is the only one she’ll ever pick up. That in itself isn’t a problem, because Forgotton Anne isn’t that type of game. But these flimsy wings just about sum up ThroughLine Games’ debut: it has the potential to soar, and yet consistently struggles to get off the ground.
