The Lost & The Found

About this game

The Lost & The Found is a two-player cooperative audio thriller about trust, deduction, and the choices that define who you really serve.

You and a colleague work at the Lost & Found Department - a place where misplaced belongings are reunited with their rightful owners. Simple work. Routine decisions. Or so it seems.

Each of you hears different conversations, different truths, and different lies. Only by communicating can you piece together what’s really happening behind the counter - and decide how far your loyalty truly goes.

So what will you do? Will you cooperate and do your duty? Or will you abandon your post?

Cooperation is Mandatory

The Lost & The Found can only be played with two players. Neither of you has the full picture.

What one of you hears, the other doesn’t. What seems obvious to one may sound suspicious to the other.

Progress depends on how well you work together and and how much you discuss what you’re being told.

An Audio-First Experience

The Lost & The Found is driven entirely by sound. Each player receives their own audio stream, with conversations, interruptions, and background details that the other player may never hear.

All characters are fully voiced, and information is often incomplete, contradictory, or deliberately misleading.

Meaning emerges not from what you see, but from what you hear - and from how well you and your partner compare, question, and interpret what you’ve been told.
