“[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

Pros and cons of Lifeline... app for iPhone and iPad

Lifeline... app good for

Interesting story. Im really enjoying it so far. I thought it was a bit slow at first, with long breaks during the tasks (so I couldnt just "binge play" it), but once I died and had to start again, fast mode was enabled and allowed me to skip long waiting times. Now, thats better. Somehow, I think the game couldve improved by syncing the "missions" with my iPad clock... It would make sense to put the astronaut to sleep when Im sleeping - and not at 2 pm. Oh, well, I guess there arent any time zones where he is stranded, are there? This can (will?) be fixed if the day there lasts less than 24 hours. I guess we shall see as I progress with the story. Well done!
Like the adventure books of yesteryear, this is an enthralling and engrossing adventure. Except for the long breaks while the little astronaut is venturing in the bleak scenario of an alien moon, you cant put the story down. Highly recommended for those who enjoy epic adventures in their pocket.
The game is great, it has a great development an a awesome story, but to be perfect could have a translation into Portuguese
I really like this game!! Did not finish yet, but so far is really entertaining! It demands some kinds of knowledge and it makes you think a lot about your choices of action for the character!! Taylor is so funny xD
Ok, I dont HATE this game, dont get me wrong. There are lots of different paths to take, and Taylor is AWESOME. But I find after playing through it once it gets kind of boring. This is just my opinion and I still TOTALLY recommend you get it. The real-time events are also pretty cool :3
Very creepy enviroment, feels like it puts you in a IEVA suit to

Some bad moments

I think you should improve the app to support more languages. Its so tiring to translate every single phrase that Taylor writes.
Dont waste your money. Even at 80% off this is still a robbery. Wish I could get a refund.
this is a terrible game. not sure how these people rated it so well. the high ratings was the reason I bought it. must be friends of the developer. keep your cash!
Until youll add the Turkish language, I wont give you five stars. When you update it for Turkish, then I change it. Ps: You still not add the Turkish!
