A storytelling game about a lone wanderer on a futile quest in a withering world
Knight Forlorn is a storytelling game about a lone wanderer on a futile quest in a withering world, drawing much inspiration from games such as Dark Souls and Diablo.
Through improvisation and collaboration, you will craft and narrate the story of the knight’s struggles. You’ll shape and portray the world together and take turns portraying the knight as they explore it.
Knight Forlorn weaves together collaborative storytelling and procedural generation. Through this system, no two stories will ever be the same.
This game promotes an improv style of play where you build on each other’s ideas and play to explore what happens next.
None of you know beforehand what will happen in your story and no single player has a complete picture of the fictional world. You will have to collaborate to create your shared world and to tell your shared Story.
You take turns assuming three different roles:
•THE LEAD: You portray the Knight’s actions, reactions, thoughts, feelings, and speech. You may not portray or craft the game world.
•THE NARRATOR: You portray and craft the game world, and facilitate exploration and adversity. You may not portray the Knight.
•THE CHORUS: You help portray and craft the game world by adding details and mood. You may also portray the Knight’s thoughts and feelings, but not their actions or speech.
The game can still be played duet or solo.
