Not Your Phone

An unlit bedroom at night. She sits on the edge of the bed beside her sleeping boyfriend, reading his phone.

You were nevermeant to see this.

A partner's phone. A mother's. A best friend's. Read the messages, the photos and the history they thought they deleted, and answer the one question your client can't ask out loud.

Every story here is fiction. The guilt you feel reading someone else's phone probably is not.

How it plays

  1. 23:47. The owner is asleep.

    The lock screen is full of ordinary notifications. A dry cleaner, a text from his mother, a jeweller. Nothing glows.

  2. The passcode is their anniversary.

    That is all your client knows. The date is already on the screen. Try it.

  3. What he hides looks perfectly ordinary.

    His mother promised to act like she knows nothing. At 20:34, one message was deleted.

  4. Deleting it says more than the message did.

    Recently Deleted keeps only what the owner did not want seen. When it went matters more than what it said.

  5. Answer in your own words.

    Your client asks one question at a time. No multiple choice: if the meaning is right, so are you. Hints are there when you stall.

The rest is in the app.

Every app on it actually works.

The owner's ordinary life is all still there: a shopping list, a missed delivery, a mother left on read. Only a sliver of it has anything to do with the case.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Is this a real person's phone?

No. Every character, message, photo and record is written for the game. The app never accesses a real device or account.

What languages can I play in?

English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Korean. Each version is rewritten for its market, with local names, cities and money. Switch any time in the app.

How long is a case?

Around 40 minutes and about ten questions. Progress is saved, so you can put a case down and come back.

How are answers checked?

You type them. Different wording is fine; if the meaning is right, the answer counts.

Can I play offline?

No. Stories come from our server, which is also why new cases arrive without an app update.

Can I play on Android?

Yes. It is free on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android.

Do I need an account?

No. We never ask for your name or email address. Read theprivacy policy.
