Reliving some of the darkest moments within one’s childhood, as they sit and think about their life’s regrets whilst slowly slipping away on their deathbed, isn’t the cheeriest of topics to make a game about.
But hey, games are an art medium, and shouldn’t shy away from the hardest of themes. Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow comes to us from Frozen Line and Ravenage Games, as a brand-new emotional adventure game to experience.
Touching Duo
Now available on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow has been available on PC for a little while now, garnering Mostly Positive results on Steam.
You’ll step into the heavy shoes of protagonist Griffin, alongside teddy bear sidekick Birly. Griffin is in fact on his deathbed, but is harking back to some key events in his childhood, during which the game takes place. You’ll have to confront some pretty awful memories here, using the unique abilities of both Griffin and the much more nimble Birly to solve environmental puzzles, and overcoming the many traps that lie in front of them.
Visually, one can immediately draw parallels to the likes of Little Nightmares, as well as Max: The Curse of Brotherhood.

Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow Description
Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow is an atmospheric adventure game starring Griffin, a little boy who struggles to face his fears. Thankfully, his teddy bear companion Birly is always by his side.
The duo’s journey will not be easy. Traversing the expanse of light and darkness will force the pair to confront traumatic memories and make amends with the monsters of the past.
Birly’s help is invaluable. Send him anywhere Griffin can’t reach. Toss the teddy bear over a high beam to press a button or command him to crawl into a tiny hole. Together, the duo can move heavy objects, overcome traps and succeed at whatever new challenges await them.
