Before I Forget is a narrative discovery game about a scientist who is dealing with the onset of Alzheimer’s. You play as her, in her house, as she gets confused, forgets events, and tries to put together fractured memories of her past, her job and her husband.
You can probably guess from the premise that it’s not all happy and light, so it isn’t what I’d describe as “fun”, but does fit into the sort of bracket games like A Normal Lost Phone and Bury Me My Love do where the message is important and they’re not supposed to be “enjoyed” as such.
It’s short, interesting, well put together, and eye-opening though, so well worth a playthrough.
