Description

“[A] surprising iPhone and Apple Watch bestseller is pushing the boundaries of fiction” - boingboing.net “This is the best game on the Apple Watch” - Time.com Lifeline is a playable, branching story of survival against all odds. Using your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch, you will help Taylor make life or death decisions, and face the consequences together. Acclaimed writer Dave Justus (Fables: The Wolf Among Us) weaves a gripping interactive story through the aftermath of a crash landing on an alien moon. Taylor is stranded, the rest of the crew are dead or missing, and Taylor’s communicator can only reach you. Lifeline pioneered a new narrative experience enabled by modern devices. This story plays out in real time as Taylor works to stay alive, notifications deliver new messages throughout your day. Keep up as they come in, or catch up later when you’re free. You can even respond to Taylor directly from your Apple Watch or your iPhone lock screen, without launching into the app. Or, dive in and jump back to earlier points in the story, and see what happens when you make a different choice. Simple actions can have a profound effect. Complete any single path to restart the story and unlock this mode. Lifeline is a deep, immersive story of survival and perseverance, with many possible outcomes. Taylor is relying on YOU. You can play Lifeline in any of these languages: - English - French - German - Russian - Simplified Chinese - Japanese - Spanish - Korean NEW in version 1.8: Stick around after the game for a special story epilogue from Dave Justus. For players who have already finished the game, the Bonus Story becomes available under the game options. Witness the events leading up to Lifeline: Silent Night. Internet connection not required. No in-app purchases and no ads. Praise for Lifeline: “I’ve played many games that I find engrossing, but Lifeline may be one of the first that changed the way I thought about my daily routine, which leapt off the screen and became a part of my lived experience.” - Eli Cymet, Gamezebo “I felt an immediate attachment to a fictional character pinging me from a strange galaxy to my wearable.” - Luke Hopewell, Gizmodo Australia “[P]laying it on the Apple Watch makes you truly feel like you’re exchanging messages with an astronaut via a futuristic transmitter.” - Michael Andronico, Tom’s Guide “For a few brief hours I cared – really cared – about the fate of a completely fictional character. I don’t think any other game I’ve played has made me feel that way before.” - Matt Thrower, PocketGamer Lifeline was created by: Dave Justus Mars Jokela Dan Selleck Colin Liotta Jason Nowak Ben “Books” Schwartz

    Неплохая история,чтобы попроходить ее в течение нескольких дней!Фишка в том,что ты будто помогаешь реальному человеку,который потерялся на далекой безжизненной(или нет) луне.Тейлор будет делать паузы в общении при перерывах на сон,ходьбу и так далее,что дает + к атмосфере.Единственный более менее значительный минус это сегмент с крысами в вершине,очень надоедливая графомания для растягивания сюжета,а в остальном-топ!

    This “game” is awesome. It has plenty of possibilities, but be careful… a wrong decision could cost Taylor his life. I am sure you will enjoy it so give it a try..

  • Standard concept, poor execution

    The concept is just what I expected when I found the game- Taylor is a student "scientist", working on some "experiment" with rats on the "Vario", a multi-million (billion?) dollar extra-solar system ship. The ship crashes, Taylor manages to be shoved on board a now destroyed escape pod and needs to find water, food, warmth and possibly the rest of the crew along with .... well, I think the less obvious needs of Taylor change with the choices the earth bound assistant makes for Taylor, within very limited strictures. Those are some of the basics of the scenario but moving on in gameplay I'm able get more of an impression of who Taylor is, and it begins to seem that this is someone with the emotional and intellectual maturity of a middle school student. A huge contributor to this is the attitude he (Taylor was originally female but I didn't want a stereotype of a confused, lost woman so I changed her gender) displays toward the metric system. Anyone in the sciences has a working familiarity with the metric system, beginning with, at a minimum, grams and milliliters. In fact, I don't know a single individual who shows the level of ignorance Taylor does. I'm not sure what purpose this demonstrated ignorance serves; it doesn't advance the plot or give the player the feeling of helping a peer. Overall, I don't see this game as thrilling way of expanding game expectations and boundaries. Instead, it strikes me a standard look at what can happen when we make one of two choices, with an unfortunately unintelligent character carrying out our suggestions.
  • Slow and boring

    This is such a slow paced game, and the quippy commentary makes no sense. Who would make quips in Taylor’s situation?
  • Amazing game!!!

  • Waiting hours just to see consequence

    I’m a fan of choice-based story games, but this one has an added feature of being “real time”. Meaning, you have to wait hours to see the consequences of your decision. And sometimes, you wait hours only to find out your character died, so all those hours waiting turned out for nothing.
  • Badly written and lacks depth

    Too many stops and starts. Wait forever to get moving. Used Fast Mode, which helps. But, the story and forced choice of only 2 responses doesn’t make it worth the time.
  • Fun adventure

    My son turned me onto this years ago. This game is fun of course the first time I played I like killed poor Taylor a gazillion times. But it’s a playable game. This is the first one in his series. There’s four adventures for him and those games are just as fun. It’s one of those games that have you play. He let sit for a while when you can’t remember what happened and then you play again. It doesn’t get old. And I like the fact that you can just kinda take your time he’ll send you a text and then he’ll be off doing something and it’s not a Constant thing, unless you decided to turn on fast mode
