BrokenLore: FOLLOW puts players in the childhood home of protagonist Ann, where mementos trigger memories that quickly turn unsettling. The game's horror comes from a gnome-like figure called Little Ann, who appears in otherwise realistic settings and speaks in meaningful phrases. Instead of traditional puzzle logic, the game uses dreamlike sequences where actions like burning a Christmas tree with a lighter taken from inside a doll are required to progress. Each chapter is built around a color that represents the stage's emotional tone, with orange described as active and oppressive in one section. After each chapter, a side-scrolling mini-game reminiscent of Limbo or Little Nightmares has players control Little Ann while being chased by a giant face.
