The Almost Gone in IOS

Trapped between worlds

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

93/100

The Almost Gone is a hauntingly beautiful puzzle game that explores heavy themes of family, trauma, and memory through a minimalist, dioramas-style lens. You navigate through small, 3D 'rooms' that you can rotate to find hidden objects and clues. It feels like a mix of 'The Room' and a dark, indie narrative film.

The puzzle design is clever, often requiring you to connect information from one room to another. But the real pull is the story—unfolding through brief snippets of text that paint a picture of a fractured life. The pastel color palette and clean lines contrast sharply with the dark subject matter, creating an unsettling yet transfixing atmosphere. It’s a short, powerful experience that proves mobile games can tell deeply emotional and mature stories.
