Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a new side-scrolling game available for download via torrent. Modus and Sketch Book Games have developed a side-scroller with a thoughtful yet melancholic aesthetic infused with contemporary indie games such as Night in the Woods and Life Is Strange. The story tells how a young girl writes a fairy tale for her sick grandmother. The project is an indie magical watercolor platform game set in a small children’s scary world with a gameplay twist where you acquire words that can be applied to the environment to solve puzzles. “You are in a story written by a girl who is trying to process a sense of loss. The last line of Croshaw’s practical evaluation is particularly striking. Like the protagonist of Lost Words, Pratchett was born to be a writer. Her father, Terry Pratchett, was the fantasy writer behind novels such as The Good Omens. She has several stellar video game scripts written in her name, including Tomb Raider, Mirror Edge, Overlord, Beyond Divinity, and Heavenly Sword. But The Lost Words seems to be a more emotional and more personal story. In 2015, her father passed away from Alzheimer’s, and Lost Words appears to have been inspired by that experience, turning it into a poignant tale of grief.
