This page has a walkthrough for the first moments ofThe Forgotten City.
We described the conversation with Karen, the character creation process, and how to reach the temple.
Your will immediately see a stranger who will give you a task.
you might’t refuse - this task is the plot of the Forgotten City.
The woman will start a conversation that can’t avoid.
You will now choose the character you want to play as.
The first choice is to determine the gender of the hero.
This does not affect the gameplay, only the visual aspects - namely the hands of the character.
NPCs will react to you the same way, whether you play as a man or a woman.
Another choice that does not affect anything except aesthetics.
you have to name your character.
That’s how you will introduce yourself to new acquaintances.
The next choice is very important.
you’re able to name your character class.
You have 4 options to choose from:
The choice is yours.
This decision does not block you from anything that may appear later in the game.
It does not block any dialog options or missions.
We can recommend the “Fugitive” class - for people who want to move around the city fast.
Regarding the other two classes.
There isn’t much fighting in the game, and even if it occurs, it is nothing difficult.
There is no point in choosing combat-oriented classes.
However, if you care about achievements, choose the Soldier class.
This is the only character that has separate trophies.
you might find more about the achievements on a separate page of our guide.
Accepting the task
After creating a character, you will continue the conversation with the stranger.
After hearing her story, you’re free to ask questions and move on.
If you have chosen the Soldier class, you will have a flashlight attached to your firearm.
Ruins
It’s time to start the game.
The first task is to go to the ruins.

To do this, you will travel through the dark forest.
you might help yourself with a flashlight, but the path is very simple.
Just keep moving forward.
On your way, you will see a small old building.
There’s a backpack next to the building, and there’s a note pinned to the door.
Start by examining the backpack to get valuable information.
Examine the note - it will give you new clues and initiate the door to the building.
you might continue the story.
But that’s not all.
Go a few steps back to stand on the back of the painting located on the floor.
This will open a secret passage and allow you to get to the next part of the cave.
Golden trail
You will fall into a small reservoir.
Nothing will happen to you.
Swim out and get to shore.
Time to move on.
Keep moving forward - there are no side paths.
All it’s possible for you to do is check the gold statues.
Use your flashlight again and continue the journey.
You will be guided by the mysterious voice of the man you are supposed to find.
The path is straight.
All you have to do is keep moving forward.
There are no side paths that it’s possible for you to explore.
Eventually, you will reach a man who is hanging on one of the rocks.
It was his voice that led you through the ruins.
Next to him, you will find notes - read them to continue the story.
Loop
After getting the information from the man, it’s time to go to the temple.
You will see the loop for the first time - you will keep seeing it throughout the entire story.
In this way, you will move to Rome - the place whereThe Forgotten Citytakes place.
