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

Hated it
It’s like waiting for someone to respond and the story is just boring.
★★★★★positivoThe Rebel Striving · 2026-02-25 · v2.2
Still stand-out after all these years
Amazing game. You really feel for this snarky yet determined little goober even though you know they’re just prewritten lines of code. Response times are enough to keep you in suspense, but not so long as to be annoying. Here’s to future adventures!
★★★★★positivostantonskier · 2025-10-26 · v2.2
Love the texting to each other
I love that. I’m getting prompted by text from the game. Feels like I’m communicating someone from out of space through a text message.

Скрытый гем
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!

Taylor is in danger!
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..

Amazing

★★★★★neutralMencionan preciosPhelineCat · 2025-06-30 · v2.2
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.
★★★★negativoClawbert Jr · 2025-06-16 · v2.2
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?

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.
★★★★★negativoAce55gemini · 2025-05-02 · v2.2
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.
★★★★★positivoKiwi1736 · 2025-04-29 · v2.2
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
★★★★★positivoBigTuna2025 · 2025-03-20 · v2.2
Best. Game. Ever.
This game gave me one of the best experiences I’ve ever experienced in a game, the real time gameplay was crazy! One tip if you are thinking of playing, turn off notifications while you sleep because playing this at night gives you the chills. Especially at 3 AM 😳👾

this is my first 5 star and I give it to lifeline
There aren’t many games I would write a review 😭
★★★★★negativoCritiqueCulture · 2024-12-25 · v2.2
What if you don’t want to wait hours?
The game is alright, I just don’t like the forced wait times. Really yanks the experience out of the game.
★★★★negativoScaledHams · 2024-12-21 · v2.2
SO MANY UNEEDED NOTIFICATIONS!
The game maybe good. However, instead of a single notification saying something like “Taylor has messaged you”, you get… So many Stupid Notifications Like this Each notification Being of few words And spamming you All At once. It gets REALLY annoying, REALLY fast. I don’t need 10 notifications hitting me all at once!
★★★★★positivogvuhcffyjnnbu · 2024-11-26 · v2.2
Great snack game
One of the best short game. Fantastic story. Interesting form. Also support Apple Watch. Love it.
★★★★★positivoCooleeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrr · 2024-11-26 · v2.2
10/10 recommend
Since the start of the game to the end of the game, it’s been nothing but fun and I like all the questions and things you have to think about in the game and the puzzles that he gives you to answer. Two game creator. Thank you for making this game and as you’ve been feeling that it was a good view and I’m only 13. Thank you for making the game.
★★★★★positivoJfidijr · 2024-08-29 · v2.2
Interesting narrative device, decent-ish writing
Downloaded this because the idea of storytelling over time through a fake interface seemed interesting. The game is decent and is an interesting gimmick. Unfortunately, there isn’t really much gameplay to speak of - almost any choice you make that’s a wrong choice Taylor will ignore and just do what the story wants you to do instead. There are only really 2 major choices at the very end that determine what ending you get. Everything else is pretty pointless and leads to the exact same text eventually. The writing is also - fine, but not amazing. It’s like a college student wrote a sci-fi short story. Decently interesting, but the dialogue is at times unrealistic or awkward. Still giving it 5 stars to differentiate it from typical App Store slop. It’s definitely not that.
★★★★★positivoMencionan preciosDcap08 · 2024-08-25 · v2.2
play this game!
10/10. loved the eerie/unsettling music. the layout and two options you’re allowed to pick, which can leave you guessing on where the other choice could have lead you. and it’s only 3 dollhairs! (dollars)
★★★★★positivoSav2468 · 2024-08-04 · v2.2
enjoyed playing and great on watch
I love a good choose your own adventure story, and I really enjoyed this one. The only thing I didn't like was when Taylor decides to message you 100 times and your watch keeps going off in the middle of a meeting
