### 4/5 — A fun way to kill a little time

*2023-04-28, version 1.0*

Perhaps I’m the only one, but I think the app needs a redesign so that you don’t have to deal with the entire history on every choice. On all of them, I keep having to scroll to get down to where I’m supposed to be. It would be better if you weren’t reading the whole story constantly. This applies to all of the Lifeline apps, not just the one. It is, however, largely accessible with voiceover. .

### 4/5 — Great game but too short for me.

*2022-07-26, version 1.0*

I’ve honestly become super invested in this line of texted named Taylor. Way more than I originally thought I would with the first game. So invested that I was honestly disheartened when this tale ended so soon. But I definitely look forward to the next one. 

One small other issue I have is a lack of checkpoints. After a certain point you have to go through a lot of repeated text over and over again if you keep screwing up like I did. If you didn’t screw up like me then you might have no clue what I mean. But let’s just say that the rescue plan checkpoint is a little too far back. Idk if this is actually a valid complaint but just know devs that I still really enjoyed the game! Thank you for the story!

### 3/5 — Less pop culture references, please

*2022-05-01, version 1.0*

I adored the first Lifeline game, but man, does this one almost feel like it’s written by someone else. The writing is just SO focused on seeming clever by dropping nearly-constant pop culture references; it’s not a trait I remember noticing much at all during the first game, so it was kind of odd to suddenly have Taylor doing it what felt like every other conversation. The more it went on, the more it honestly made Taylor less relatable and kind of annoying (I’m also not sure why someone from the future seems to communicate entirely in our-era pop culture, really). 

The timing of the “real time” messaging didn’t feel as “real” this game, either. Some of the choice prompts honestly just didn’t feel like a choice someone would make while in a near-death situation (Taylor, why are you staying awake to comment on every song on this spaceship playlist ((AGAIN with the pop culture references)), please just go to sleep).

Overall, I still enjoyed the game, but it’s definitely the weakest of the Taylor stories.

### 5/5 — 続編ありがとうございます‼️‼️

*2022-03-07*

タイラーからのメッセージを受けて進める"ゲーム"なのですが、タイラーとの会話はゲームだということを忘れてしまいそうな会話です！

難しいかもしれませんが、続編が気になります……

### 5/5 — Просто супер

*2021-10-04*

Игра как и вся другая коллекция про Тейлора просто супер, единственное, мне больше понравилось меню с тихой ночи и было бы супер, если бы вы выпустили продолжение!

### 3/5 — 這代好像不支援 Apple Watch 了嗎

*2021-05-16, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — Still waiting

*2020-01-15, version 1.0*

It’s been 4 years already, but I believe that Taylor’s story is going to continue.
Do I need to wait more?
Or let it go to a good memories?

### 4/5 — 素晴らしいゲームをありがとう

*2019-12-29, version 1.0*

私はこれまでアプリのゲームは殆ど手付かずか大抵途中で投げ出していました(課金癖がかなり悪くてそれを止めるためにやめたこともしばしば...)

私は何か暇つぶしにならないかと興味が湧きそうなアプリゲームをスラスラと眺めながら偶然このシリーズにたどり着き、レビューなどを読み興味が引かれ120円を払い迷える宇宙学生タイラーを支える事になる“声”になりました。

三作品全てをプレイした結果、私はこれほどのめり込んだアプリゲームはなかったでしょう。lifeline一作目を終えると私はすぐsilent  Night、そして今作を次々とDLしタイラーと共に星を、船を、そして宇宙を駆け回りました

私は120円以上の価値があったと思っています。これ程のめり込み満足感に浸れたゲームはとても久々でした。
タイラー。彼は惑星に降りたった(正確には落ちた)時とてもナードで少し生意気なヒッピーでした。しかし幾度もの生命の危機や機転を求められる瞬間を渡り、ガントレットの文字に支えられながら物語が進むにつれ彼自身が精神的に成長していくのは伝わってきました。
まだ一作目の彼だったら、無限の途中の最善のエンドでの決断は難しかったでしょう。
私はあの時、タイラーを誇りに思いました。
私は無限の途中の続きがいつやってくるかわかりませんが、とても楽しみにしています。

んまぁいつかはわかりませんが...
そんでいくつか不満点を挙げるとすると、やはり待機時間が少し長い気がしました。
リアルタイムに反映させるのはとても臨場感というリアリティがあり、待ってる間のワクワク感ドキドキ感もとても良いですが、タイラーがいるのは遥か彼方の宇宙、私達は地球にいるので多少時間にズレがあるという設定で待機時間を早めても良いかと思います。
また一度エンディングを向ければ高速モードをアンロック出来ますが、高速化するのは取り込み中などの待機時だけで良いかと思いました。
メッセージまで高速化するとメッセージが一気にやってきて最初のモノが画面上外まで行ってしまってスクロールして一つ一つ確かめなくてはならない場合があり少し不便さを覚えました。
なので高速化は待機時間を2、3分程にするか無くしてメッセージの速度は標準で良いと思います。
また、「早くストーリーが観たいんだ！」とiPhoneの時間設定を早めてスキップさせるプレイヤーもいます(実際私もそうだった)し、高速モードは最初からアンロックでも良いのではないでしょうか？

こういった点を踏まえ、今回評価は4とさせていただきました。
別にまだタイラーの冒険が続く？気になるわ！という気持ちで評価を下げたわけではないですよ？

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-12-27, version 1.0*

If your wondering if the 99 cents are worth it I’m going to put your mind at ease. I’ve played all three games in the green series and it’s absolutely fantastic. You fall in love with this goofball Taylor as you help him make life or death decisions. He always has a witty pop culture reference and makes you think of him as a real live person. The thought that must of been put into developing him as a character was meticulous to say the least. The creators built this world that you feel very connected to almost like an episode of Star Trek or Star Wars or anything really space related. So if you are thinking maybe I shouldn’t get this game your wrong this game is so much fun with a lot of anticipation. Although the breaks are long it’s good to get away from the game a little bit.

### 5/5 — Одна з найращих

*2019-12-27, version 1.0*

Гра дуже класна , дуже затягує. Пару днів проживаєш разом з Тейлором.
Хто б що не казав , але сюжет є , може й не дуже розгалужений , але в цій частині є пару кінцівок. Як на мене ця серія найкраща в цьому жанрі ігор. 
Сумно , що немає української , але думаю на це вплинути не можна. 
10/10 , вартує більш ніж одного долара.

### 5/5 — When’s part 2???

*2019-12-15, version 1.0*

I love this game, please make the second part, (or, technically part 4)

### 2/5 — Great story with 2 big issues

*2019-11-23, version 1.0*

I played the game twice taking all options. There ending is always the same, meaning the user really has no option to truly effect how the game ends. Also the dialog is way too fast. Why is there not a break for a few hours like it should be? Instead the dialog just keeps scrolling making it feel like a rushed game.

### 5/5 — best game ever✨✨✨

*2025-02-03, version 1.0*

I’ve been obsessed with this for years now and I think I need help but it’s really good and I definitely recommend it GREAT FANBASE THANKS FOR READING💙🩷💙🩷

### 5/5 — I love this series but…

*2024-11-14, version 1.0*

It’s gonna take me a long long long time to finish this especially because all of the lifeline stories(specifically Taylor’s and no others) I have been reading on my watch and never really on my phone and this one is not available for the Apple Watch which is a real disappointment to me. Other than that it’s a wonderful series I’m glad a bought the first one and after reading the second I immediately bought the third and fourth together. Thanks for making this interesting story which has kept me out of boredom many times when I didn’t have my phone. Sadly I’m gonna have to figure out a way to continue this without my watch.

### 5/5 — 테일러 너무 좋아요

*2024-04-02*

이시리즈 너무 좋아해요!! 한국어 추가도 되면 좋겠어요 ㅠ

### 5/5 — タイラーにまた会いたい

*2024-02-29*

昔やってたのを思い出し、1から再プレイしました。
タイラーとの約束から何年経ったでしょう…
会うためには私が英語を覚えるか、アップデートで日本語が出るか…。
タイラーからの連絡をずっと待ってます(´°‐°｀)

### 5/5 — Love These Games

*2024-01-11, version 1.0*

The games are fun. Taylor cracks me up.

### 5/5 — Another great game

*2023-03-31, version 1.0*

I played the first lifeline game on Apple Arcade and needed to know more because I love taylor’s character. I will 100% be splurging on this company’s game. Unlike the first one, you can do fast mode from the start as well.

### 5/5 — Favorite so far

*2023-03-16, version 1.0*

The “Greens” series is a real masterpiece. A gaming experience you never forget. Taylor is such a funny and nice guy, he is someone you really wanna save. This episode was my favorite so far, cant wait for the fourth one. Bravo guys just bravo!

### 5/5 — MORE PLEASE

*2023-03-08, version 1.0*

This text-based choice game is just simply breathtaking. This isn’t the first text-based game that i’ve played (i’ve played and spent a LOT of time and money on text-based choice games) but I can confidently say that THIS game is so engrossing and so beautifully written! I CARED for Taylor! I cried for Taylor and i got stressed about what was happening to Taylor. I bought the whole Taylor series and i can’t wait to play the last installment of Lifeline. This is worth every penny I spent.

### 5/5 — I’m with you halfway to infinity and beyond, Taylor! 💙

*2023-02-27, version 1.0*

I grow to love Taylor more and more with each game. I love how much they’ve grown from their experiences and getting to have a heart to heart with them may or may not have made me tear up a bit. 

I’m with you buddy, wherever infinity takes you

### 5/5 — i am weeping

*2022-07-17*

I don’t write reviews for anything but I feel like I have to for this game because otherwise what is the point of life. I just finished this one and haven’t yet played BYiT bc, I kid you not, I still need to emotionally recover from this one. I have never been so emotionally attached to anything. Not even Bird Alone could make my cry the way this has bc it just feels so real. It makes me wish Taylor was real. She says she wishes she could see or hear you, and you wish the same. It makes you wish you could bring her back to earth safely even though she is many, many light years away, making it impossible… or at least it makes *me* wish these things. Not only that, but the suspense that builds is phenomenal. Everything about this series and about her character, is so human, yet is also perfectly balanced with otherworldliness and cosmic lore. I was always felt excited when she notified me and a lil anxious when she was busy. <3

Obviously, I can’t promise you’ll have the same experience that I did, but you will definitely have a strong experience playing this game.

Also, the soundtrack SLAPS. 

✨🪐🌌
