Forgotten Stories FAQ

Dated staff notice · 2026-09-12 UTC

The September 12 server notice explicitly says codes are not implemented. It also says the team currently has a Trello and is making its own Wiki; the Wiki sites appearing in search results are not official or made by its curators. ForgottenStories.org is an independent player guide, not the planned official Wiki.

This is a staff clarification, not a feature launch or a claim that codes can never be added. No official Wiki launch date or replacement URL was supplied. Do not follow invented redemption steps or treat this guide as developer endorsement.

Official changelog · 2026-09-10 UTC

The September 10 changelog lowers the upcasting damage increase from 30% to 20%. Read this with the older FAQ's definition of extra runes above a spell's base requirement: the old 30% damage figure is superseded. The FAQ's separate +1 buff-duration turn per extra rune was not changed in this post.

Do not apply the percentage to healing or multiply all equipment and affinity bonuses into a claimed final hit. The announcement does not establish rounding, a complete stacking formula or a new rune-slot limit. More rune slots still do not teach a spell.

Official FAQ clarification · 2026-08-21 UTC · edited 2026-09-02

The Game Mechanics FAQ explicitly lists Antidote or a mage's Cleansing Waters for Venomed. That supports the spell as a treatment route; it should not be described as wholly unverified. Antidote's current card also lists removal of Venomed, Dazed, Weakness and Blindness, plus 15 Health and 5 Stamina.

The FAQ does not specify normal versus Critical casting. The Trello Critical text names Venomed but links to Bleed. The healing tool therefore marks the spell's Venomed route as partial for a selected cast, rather than guaranteeing removal on either variant. Deepwound and Infection removal are explicitly Critical-only in the spell card.

The Game Mechanics FAQ identifies the yellow orbs above the Health display as Posture, used to block attacks. If you are checking defensive resources, read those orbs as Posture rather than an extra Health or Mana pool.

This is an older FAQ clarification collected in this review, not evidence of a newly added HUD mechanic. The answer does not publish a universal Posture cost or recovery amount for every attack.

Dated staff notice · 2026-09-05 UTC

On September 5 at 16:29 UTC, staff warned about missing data and advised players not to enter while they investigated. At 16:32, a game announcement attributed failed data loading to Roblox server problems. At 16:43, staff said data would return. At 17:09, Racco asked players to enter and report through a poll whether their data had returned.

This is a dated incident timeline, not a current outage warning. The Roblox-wide cause is the staff's attribution, not an independently verified platform incident here. The follow-up poll does not prove every account recovered; neither permanent deletion nor universal restoration is confirmed by these posts. For an affected account, check newer notices before treating missing progress as an ordinary run reset; no compensation or recovery procedure was verified.

Official FAQ clarification · 2026-08-21 UTC · edited 2026-09-06

The revised official FAQ says the developers are not affiliated with any currently available Wiki. It describes a plan for their own Wiki after approval and continues to link the public Trello as a work-in-progress source. ForgottenStories.org is an independent player guide, not that planned official Wiki and not endorsed by the developer.

No approved Wiki launch date or new official Wiki URL was established in the checked message. Trello documentation can contain errors, and collecting it does not make this site's interpretations official. The original FAQ post is from August 21; its Wiki wording was edited later, not newly posted today.
