Enjoy Playing Forgotten Hill: Puppeteer
Forgotten Hill: Puppeteer places you inside a decaying theater in the bleak town of Forgotten Hill. You play a man searching for a missing partner. A ruthless puppeteer controls the theater as you push through the lobby, backstage corridors, dressing rooms, prop storage, and the main stage.
The game uses scene-by-scene exploration with precise interaction. You pick up tools, read notes, and test switches or levers. Locks rely on symbols, numbers, and patterns. Puzzles ask you to tune a music box, arrange masks by expression, match stage lights to a poster, or set gears and ropes to lift scenery. You combine items to repair mechanisms or open secret panels. The interface stays clean and fast, so focus stays on deduction.
Hand-drawn art uses muted tones and rough lines. The result feels grim and cohesive. Puppets, mannequins, taxidermy, and surgical props crowd the sets and add steady tension. Sound layers creaks, organ notes, and sudden hits to punctuate scares. Short notes and playbills add lore between acts. The story moves through clear acts and ends with a sharp turn. Puzzle difficulty shifts from light to tough and rewards careful observation. The runtime stays tight and avoids padding.
