    Downloaded this a few days ago based on the Google Play store recommendation. It's a weird (and sometimes dark) experience but one I'm glad I tried. Figured I'd recommend it here for anyone who's looking for something a bit different.

    It's a combination of a virtual chat app and scavenger hunt, talking to a stranger via IM and following links to solve riddles.

    One downside I found is that, for a mobile game, it's actually easier to play if you have a computer beside you because there is a bit of flicking between the game app and your browser/youtube which just way easier do to on a PC, but it is workable. Another is that there is a phone number to be dialled at one point, but it's a US number, so the developers have made the recording available via their website. That is a bit immersion-breaking.

    Otherwise, though, it's worth a play through.

    It's free (with optional ads if you choose to speed up the wait times between conversations), but I chose to pay the developers their €1.09 at the end anyway because I commend them for trying something different.
