A stranger has your number. They need help. Everything happens in the chat.
Unknown Contact is a collection of short interactive stories that play out entirely as text messages. No cutscenes, no maps, no menus to fight through — just a conversation with someone who is in trouble, and the words you choose to send back.
Tap a suggested reply, or type anything you want. Ask about the noise in the vent. Tell them to run. Stay quiet and see what they do. The story is listening.
