I have to be a psychologist that lean me into 1 choice all the time. If I answered more human… I got feedback like ‘shut up’ ‘do that?!’ ‘I not trust you’… what the heck I try my best to help you out but I don’t know the situation and you can’t say anything cause you’re not trust me? I have the feeling like ‘on your own, best of luck’ ### 2/5 — Great but unbeatable *2024-01-06, version 1.0.2* The story is amazing but there is this one part where you need to go to a website but the site is a site where you can publish books and there is no customer support anywhere that I can put a name ### 3/5 — 4桁のコード *2023-09-05* 他のLifelineシリーズに比べるとテンポが少し悪く感じました。主人公の「待って」から1〜2分の待機が多い…。そしてこれまでの主人公に比べると人間性としてとてもイライラする！…と思ったのですが、これはプレイしてみるとその意図は大体わかると思います。 ただ他の方が書かれているように進行上必要な4桁のコードが現段階の日本語版では手に入らない状態です。そして他の方が書かれているコードとは違うような…？と原語版について調べると、いくつか4桁のコードには種類があるようです。自分が使ったコードを一応書いておきます。 1701 ストーリーの途中で「オタク」という言葉が出てくるのがヒントかと思います。 ### 2/5 — Off putting *2023-01-10, version 1.0.2* The protagonist Wynn flips between trust and suspicion making it a frustrating read. I found myself trying to keep Wynn safe until she refused to share any info with me which prompted me to push her in to dangerous situations to get anything done. It broke me out of the fantasy because I can be trusted with making life/death decisions for her but when I ask what is in a patient file she refuses to tell me anything but immediately asks for help figuring out where to go next. She constantly reminds you that she doesn’t trust the player. I stopped playing at that point because I no longer cared about the character. David Justus’ work clearly outshines this one when it comes to character building and the bond and trust developed between the player and fictional character. The older games put a better emphasis on cooperation and trust between the protagonist and player. ### 3/5 — Mise à jour Apple Watch S7 ? *2021-10-17, version 1.0.2* Superbe scénario ! Cependant, j’ai voulu utiliser le jeu sur ma nouvelle Apple Watch 7 et les dialogues ne s’affichent pas correctement, à chaque message, ça bug. Est-il possible de mettre à jour le jeu ? Je compte bien jouer aux autres également, j’avais déjà fini le premier à l’époque. Merci pour votre réponse. ### 2/5 — No *2021-10-06, version 1.0.2* Not so good as the others in the series. There’s typos in the very beginning. And there’s no incentive for me to keep playing. ### 3/5 — So many stops and I like to see everything I am going to say *2021-05-15, version 1.0.2* I don’t wanna wait 5 minutes for her to open a door, feels like I’m playing resident evil 1, stuff doesn’t do what you mean. (Lifeline is amazing and one of my all time favorite games in the whole world but this just isn’t it) ### 2/5 — Игра виснет! *2021-03-10, version 1.0.2* Винн решила отдохнуть, немножечко. Пишет «Ожидание передачи», и ничего не происходит! Приходят уведомления мол «Вы нужны Винн!». Я захожу, и ничего не происходит. А я только начал погружаться в игру(( ### 3/5 — Frustrating *2021-03-06, version 1.0.2* As much as I wanted to love this I just couldn’t get into it and not because the story wasn’t good but because of the amount of pauses that literally happened every 2 mins .. to the point where I wanted to just delete it because the second I started to get into the story I was once again having to wait while she did something and it wasn’t like a few mins .. sometimes it was m, but more often than not it was an hour or more . Real time games just aren’t my thing and I wish the devs would have made it optional , like they did with the other lifeline games, or the few that I’ve played . With all this being said , I still really enjoyed the character but felt like there wasn’t anything that had me feeling attached to her . I still think you should give their games a try though ### 3/5 — Great story..............LOOOOOONG PAUSES *2021-02-06, version 1.0.2* I’m really enjoying the story; however, the pauses between are way too long. I’ve been playing this game for weeks and, looking back at the dialogue, this is something that could have been read in a day. I’m thinking of deleting it without finishing. When my iPad has waited long enough to time out multiple times during active play sections, this is poorly designed timing. It almost feels like we’re the experiment, just to see if people have the patience to finish the game. ### 2/5 — Way to slow *2020-11-29, version 1.0.2* I’m sure this game is great. If it didn’t take so long to move on. There’s like way to many pauses, while Wynn does things. I don’t have the attention span for it. ### 4/5 — Venom and Horror vibe *2020-11-23, version 1.0.2* I feel like this could be a good venom story. Unlike other flatline main characters, Wynn is annoyingly weak, fragile, opinionated and whinny. However, these characteristics made her more like an actual person out there in real life. The green series are amazing. ### 3/5 — サイト落ちしてます *2020-11-20* ゲーム内で飛ばされるサイトが無くなってるので攻略不可能です。仕方ないので攻略サイト検索しました。まあそれ差し引いても楽しめましたので星3です ### 3/5 — Problème notification *2020-11-08* Les notifications sont mal gérées, la bulle ne disparaît pas après avoir accéder au jeu. Il faut y accéder une second fois que qu’elle disparaisse. ### 3/5 — Bien mais... *2020-11-08* Très bon jeu mais les temps d’attente sont trop long entre chaque message . C’est dommage ... ça rend le truc moins immersif .. ### 5/5 — 身歷其境的故事 *2020-11-06, version 1.0.2* 如果要更沈浸在故事不推薦使用快速模式 ### 5/5 — 很好的遊戲 *2020-11-04, version 1.0.2* 很好的遊戲，我反覆重新做選擇，最後成功完成遊戲，在我快要失去耐心的時候，這個遊戲又給我新的驚喜，整體讓我感覺我也是遊戲的一部分，謝謝lifeline ### 5/5 — Geiles spiel *2020-11-03* Ich fande es sehr gut bis jetzt ### 5/5 — 好玩～～ *2020-11-03, version 1.0.2* 緊張刺激(´；ω；｀) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2024-01-14, version 1.0.2* Game keeps randomly restarting from the beginning ### 1/5 — П-приватность *2020-11-02* При входе копирует содержимое буфера обмена, с обновлением на iOS 14 это стало заметно, копировки текст в магазине потом заходу в игру уведомление от iOS :”вставлено из name market” это даже одной звезды недостойно теперь, я был о вас лучшего мнения... ### 1/5 — Offense Language *2020-10-30, version 1.0.2* I know it’s not a big deal to many people to take the Lord’s name in vain. It is to me. I’d really like to play if you have a game with out offensive language please let me know. ### 1/5 — Can’t even play it *2020-07-18, version 1.0.2* Every time that I open the app, I get a black screen, and then my home screen. I tried re-downloading the app, and I tried restarting my phone. Didn’t work. ### 1/5 — 【要注意】今から買う人は純粋なクリアは不可能 *2019-10-07* ゲーム終盤で現実のHPにアクセスして 4桁のコード番号をゲットする必要があるのだけど 今はそのHPが無くなっているため純粋なクリアができない 攻略サイトを検索すればコード番号を入手できるけど 終盤でそんなことをさせられて達成感が半減する ### 1/5 — ここ迄つまらないゲームに出会うのも珍しいな！ *2019-07-18* まず、日本語翻訳がおかしい。(確信) 主人公(ウィン)の言いたい事も分からないし、自分勝手で傲慢な性格な上、全て人に頼る彼女の人格には不快感や疑問しか浮かばない。思考回路も何処か変だと感じた。 選択肢の内容も理解し難いので、選択後の会話を見て「そういう意味で返したつもりの無い返答」をして居る事が殆ど。 (そして何故か勝手にキレられる……理不尽にも程が有る……。) 途中で「HPにアクセスしてメールを送信しろ」と言われるし、リンクに飛んでもよく分からない変なサイトに出るし、挙句の果てには「アクセスが出来ないんだ」と返答するとキレられる始末。 (…え、何でだ…？素直に答えただけだろう………？) 正直、訳が分からない………面白さも微塵も感じ無いし、ストレスが溜まって疲れる………。 僕にはこのゲームをプレイする意欲ももう無いし、クリアまでプレイし続ける自信も無い。 ………申し訳無いが、個人的には余りお勧めは出来ないな……。(._.`) ### 1/5 — Complete waste of money. *2018-02-19, version 1.0.2* First, let me say that I have other games in this series, so I am very used to the format of having to wait at times to continue the story. However, this particular game has constant waiting periods. Literally you get to read a few lines, then you wait. I few more lines, then you wait. It is a constant process of hurry up and wait. Just terrible design. Do yourself a favor and save your money. ### 1/5 — Constantly restarting without dying/finishing *2017-12-31, version 1.0.2* I have been attempting to play this for over a year but, without dying, the game keeps restarting with no way for me to skip ahead to where I was the night before. I can be anywhere from a few hours to a few days (real time) into the game and it will suddenly say “QComm Disabled” in the middle of other dialogue. The previous hours/days of dialogue are still visible and I can even scroll back through it to the beginning but there is nothing I can do about it. I have deleted and reinstalled the game several times over the last year or so because this is the only Lifeline game I haven’t yet completed but I am finished making the effort. ### 1/5 — Unlikeable character, long waits *2017-12-30, version 1.0.2* I’ve played the other lifeline games and out of all of them this character is the least likable, also if you pay for it game you should have the option of a fast mode which this doesn’t have. This game could’ve been so much more fun without these two factors ### 1/5 — シリーズ中最悪 *2017-10-25* 選択肢は原文のニュアンスが違うのか、優しく接しても偉そうと言われるし主人公は言うこと聞かない。シリーズ中一番助けたくない主人公。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun and Intense *2025-09-18, version 1.0.2* Love this game. Totally keeps me on my toes. ### 5/5 — What a game! *2023-01-06, version 1.0.2* The game seems like a franchise of the original lifeline, but in this case this is a good turn. They turned ‘funny’ game to a real SiFi thriller with several different endings.I wish they made a spin off from this game. Worth to play! ### 5/5 — Amazing story *2021-06-20, version 1.0.2* Great interaction between Wynn and the player ### 5/5 — Few words for this game *2021-06-17, version 1.0.2* Its worth the 2 bucks and I really loved it. ### 5/5 — Enjoyed it, thanks *2021-01-21, version 1.0.2* Good game, played 3 minutes at a time. Great for those short breaks. ### 5/5 — Important pour la bonne fin *2021-01-18* Pour les nouveaux joueurs, on vous demande à un moment d’aller sur un site, seulement il a fermé, le code que vous devez récupérer est 6334. ### 5/5 — Coole Sache *2020-12-30* Echt coole Sache. Bin in der Story noch nicht weit, finde das Konzept aber sehr gut. Kleiner Hinweis: Das mit dem Puls ist echt cool, er sollte aber nicht eine Minute fest auf zum Beispiel 78bpm stehen, sonder um den Punkt leicht wandern (zum Beispiel von 76 bis 82bpm) einfach um menschlicher und echter zu wirken. Würde gerne mehr von Euch, also dem Team, sehen. Beste Grüße Loki ### 5/5 — Avoid!! *2020-12-08* Don't purchase,game gets stuck halfway,no progress,game debs have wrapped up lifeline series n no more supported!don't buy!!!!! ### 5/5 — I am in love with this game! *2020-11-17* It’s a incredible imersível interaction. I am deeply involved with the main character! Hope I can live the next steps of this adventure with her. ### 5/5 — Top line. *2020-11-06* This game was amazing. I enjoyed every single line of it. I hope they make more of this story! I will be waiting! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
