Get Your Game On: Lifeline


I don't normally play cell phone games, but this isn't just a game. Even if you don't like phone games, buy this one. The amazing story line and multiple outcomes are all based in text messages you receive from Taylor, a stranded astronaut. Her choices and her survival are depending on you. The first day I texted back and wondered why there's such a cult following for a simple text based game. After several chats with Taylor, I found myself thinking of her as a real person. I was emotionally invested for several days and in the morning my heart was racing to see if Taylor had survived the night. I am replaying the game as I type this and I have gotten to know more and more about her fears and hopes. My hope is that I can keep her alive. Can you?
