About The Forgotten Ones

✦ AI summary

Step into the shoes of detective Grobuskna Vladinov as you hunt down Nazi war criminals across the globe, driven by the personal tragedy of losing your parents in the Holocaust. Follow a gripping narrative where a mysterious phone call finally puts you on the trail of the man responsible, forcing you to confront your darkest memories and seek justice.

Through the eyes of Grobuskna Vladinov, you'll be taken through a ride that has stained itself to Grobuskna's memory.
Losing his parents during the holocaust left Grobuskna with many questions, he couldn't accept to let the villain be forgotten.
Having a father that worked close with the resistance during world war two was a big risk in itself.
But as Grobuskna once said, to let good die and bad live is something no man can accept.

Grobuskna is a detective, as a side thing he's been trying to keep track of remaining Nazi officers spread around the world.
Despite the fact that he knows who took his parents, he still doesn't know where he's hiding.
Until an unknown call reaches Grobuskna's office, an unknown call but an expected call that'll change everything...

I'll summarise the entire gameplay experience you'll get in a short paragraph. Install game, play, find enemy, get demolished, restart, get demolished, restart, get demolished, restart until you lose your sanity or uninstall the game.
