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

Taylor talk to me😞
I only started playing this morning 14/June/2019 in South Africa.I want more..I am so worried about Taylor.I might have sent him to his death but I did research 🙏🏾😥
2016-10-02
Brilliant
This game is so original, you don't do much but the story is so rich and engulfing you just can't put it down! Some of the most riveting and tense hours of my life through a game. It is so well developed that it feels as if Taylor is a real person with real threats and dire situation. Totally worth buying for the price, you won't regret it!
2016-08-17
Interesting and annoying
When I started playing the game, I enjoyed it and it was quite interesting. But after a while the character becomes really annoying, and won't follow your instructions. It got to a point where I just stop playing because I was so annoyed with the character's incessant yapping.
2016-07-13
Worth It!!!
What lacks with gameplay makes up with the story, I was hung for hours on end, the only disadvantage is how long you have to wait, but either way this is one of the best iOS game stories in a long time to come! GET IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!! Now you have to pay though...
2016-06-25
What a time well spent
This has been quite an adventure. My wife was often annoyed at me because I spoke of Taylor's situation as if he were really out there and needed my guidance. I've love everything about this title. Thank you so much.
2016-06-17
Amazing
I bought the game and started playing it and it was cool, but as the game went on I was hooked to this fictional character's life and as the story went on and I saw who he is and his personality I fell love in love and I feel this real feeling if care a worry as bad moments came and went I fell in love with this game and I would strongly buy the second game that holds Taylor and his crazy new adventure.
This is a need to play game.

What a game great experience everyone should try it well done
10/10 from me

Excellent Game in the market, all too motion 👍

Amazing
I downloaded this game and it's amazing but I got so sad when Taylor died I almost started to cry but other than that the game is amazing,simple but amazing.

Entertaining and logical thinking

It keeps me in suspense
2016-02-26
Not a game, just a story
It's extremely unrealistic that an astronaut would be this stupid and horrendous at making decisions. Writer tries too hard to make the character like Watney from The Martian. The pauses between texts are very annoying, and multiple texts being sent at the same time is equally frustrating. Not a game, more an interactive story, and not a well written or well thought out one either.
2016-02-14
Cool idea
I love the idea of this app! Story was fun however you could notice that some choices weren't entirely unique.
2016-01-28
Brilliantly simplistic
Such a simple game, yet if you enjoy a good story quiet compelling and found myself constantly wanting to know more.

Lifeline
I enjoyed playing Lifeline immensely. The storyline was well-written and interesting, and some of the choices had me sitting hunched over for ages, trying to decide which one to pick. I've purchased both other games in the series, and I am currently enjoying them too. I look forward to any future installments.
2016-01-25
Mr
This game showed such promise which is why it was so disappointing when you realise that the majority of the choices make no difference on what happens in the story. It is so disheartening to be given options that don't matter. With a little more effort the developers could have created multiple pathways for the story that would have meant that the decisions actually changed the direction of the story. Even after this disappointment, I was still going to buy the sequel just to know how the story ended. However, the first choice of the sneak preview was so bad that I will not waste my money.

😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This game makes you want to stay and wait for the next "transmission" from Taylor, our favourite astronaut/student who absolutely needs your help
The decision making part of this game is what I truly admire along with it's captivating, nail-biting , heart rate rising and time slowing story, truly the best there is👌🏼
2016-01-23
Brilliant
Love the concept. I'm definitely going to get their other games and play through the different story lines.
2016-01-22
Amazing
An amazing thought out game
2016-01-22
You need to know English!
This game is great if you know English. Otherwise you won't understand what's going on, you'll just scroll and read!
2016-01-22
Top notch
An innovative, yet retro feel, game. Very good and enjoyable.
2016-01-22
Creative Work
So like I have played probably too many games on iOS and this is quite new and thus impressive. Taylor responds realistically and just the whole concept is new and very creative. Keeping me at the edge of my seat! Great download. Although lastly the interface could have been developed better but other than that great work!
2016-01-20
Well worth the money
Good one, Three Minute Games!
2016-01-20
Truly awesome
I wasn't too sure about it at first but once you start there is no way out. The story is great and fun. It has some great humor to it as well!

Lifeline
I found it very short but it was a good game
2016-01-20
Change definite is cool!!
Well at the start seems tho it's another of those time wasters! Actualy has me going now keeping me coming back for more, something different Aswell apose to the usual platform games. Definitely a tryer outer, for those who likes to lurk for suspense lol. Good one. Must have!!👍🏽
2016-01-19
More than you think. More than you give it.
Downloading this I first thought it would be another walk over game and waste of time but why not try it. After that, there was no going back. I soon realised this game had intentions and that was to keep me on my seat. The suspense it creates but making you choose and each choice could save or... Well let me say no more. Must play.

DA BEST GAME EVAH
GET IT NOOWW!!! I RATE 5 COOKIES OUT OF 5 COOKIES!!!
2016-01-18
Can't wait for the sequel!!!
Brilliantly innovative in getting you into the storyline of the game!
"Taylor is busy"... keeps you intrigued and waiting for him to respond. A very good plot line and there is ALWAYS a way out.
Well done to the developer.
I can't wait for the sequel!!!
2016-01-17
Loving this, so refreshing! Cant wait for taylor to respond ;)

It's amazing and the gameplay is awesome and it's so cool how you lead the story but in a way your not! Very logical game because you don't want "Taylor" to die 😭
2016-01-15

Absolutely amazing, astonishing game with brilliant technique and style. Would recommend a sequel or a different game in a different situation or timeline, except longer with maybe a gallery and real voices narrating your protagonist and another "Taylor".Brilliant!

Best ZAR3.99 I ever spent
You have to play this. An incredible, gripping story. Kept me entertained for days.

Nothing short of perfect.Nough said

Issues with notifications and app.
Really awesome game.
Thoroughly enjoying the story.
Only issue I have is that the notifications isn't updating the app itself and vice versa.
If I receive notification and action them, then the app should keep up to date.
Same if I go into the app and action it there then the notifications should resolve.
2015-10-04
So far so good.
I just downloaded the app and I'm already hooked! Wish the amount of messages that are received were more, but that's only a small problem for a stunning game. The anticipation and curiosity leaves u wanting more.
A really great game.
U should download it!
And it's only R4 in South Africa! (I don't know about other countries)

Superb
This was the most fun I had in a long time. The past week has been so entertaining. I live this mix of reading and interaction. And the gameplay engages you for short periods at a time and leave you wanting more. Perfect for someone with a busy schedule.

I was GLUED
Great game, and super intelligent in terms of choices, values and the reality of the consequences of one's choices and decisions. GREAT game!
2015-09-15
Waste of money
Genuinely disliked this game. Taylor dies even when making decisions himself. What a waste of money.
2015-09-14
Mr T
Very nice game.
Would love to see if the feed is not just a text receiver but also a picture... That would be fantastic!
Five stars.
2015-08-15
Take it for a spin.
Try it and you like it. The story is intriguing and yet suspenseful at the same time. It's a simple and elegant game. You could be wondering how's Taylor doing through your day? So his life is in your hands you need to save him. What can you do? It would be cool if he sent you images as well. Maybe 2.0 will be more interactive.
2015-07-17
What a great trip!
