The Forgotten City

Description
The Forgotten City is the first mod in history to win a national Writers' Guild award, and offers a unique 6 - 8 hour experience: a murder mystery investigation set in an ancient underground city. You'll need to solve it using your wits, and the ability to travel through time. It has a dark, non-linear story in which you'll interrogate suspects, explore the city and its many secrets, and navigate challenging moral dilemmas. It features multiple endings, an original orchestral score, and high-quality voice acting.

The worst part of this mod is that it ruined skyrim for me. I simply can't enjoy vanilla skyrim quests because they don't hold a candle to the amazing storytelling of this mod. 11/10 mod, can't recommend it enough.

I'm several years late, but this was amazing!!
Holy moly I did not expect such an immersive experience for free in Skyrim.
Glad I downloaded this on a whim. Felt like playing a whole different game.

If you read this and consider playing this, you should! However, do bring a buttload of lockpicks with you.

this looks interesting

Great story. Loved playing this.
sampsonite Feb 6, 2022 @ 7:48pm 
does anyone know how to get the key for the trapdoor inside the sunken house that appears after you complete the full quest?

It's easily the best quest mod for Skyrim I've ever came across. Excellent storytelling, solid voice acting, engaging little side quests, NPCs are way more memorable than vanilla NPCs, each has it's story and feels like a real character. I wonder what a legendary and ageless game Skyrim might be if all vanilla big questlines were done as great as this is...

I enjoyed this mod, but will be removing it from my load order, due to having bought the Game of this that just came out.
Maka-61 Jul 18, 2021 @ 11:52pm 
ive played few years ago the time runs out. maybe this one is one of the best mods im ever played...
Random Task Jul 16, 2021 @ 11:24am 
This mod is so good it made me hate vanilla skyrim
metalhead0125 Jul 13, 2021 @ 3:06am 
I played this mod a while back. This feels like a full fledged DLC. As much as I enjoy Dragonborn or Dawnguard, this is even better then those. This is the best Quest mod I have ever played, and one of the best quests in all of Skyrim period. The quest doesn't hold your hand, so don't expect a lot of quest markers. Some people hate quest markers, and some see them as a must, so just be warned. The characters are memorable, and likable. The story is mind blowing, and has different outcomes. Very engaging city that was created here, well worth exploring, and talking to the NPC's. Only thing that could possibly be a negative is there is a way to skip the whole quest, and finish it in minutes. Like I said different outcomes. I wouldn't advise going that route though.
