Murder Phone 2: Text Detective

Somebody is posting you phones. Each one belonged to a person who is not coming back for it. The lock screen still shows the minute it stopped. The messages are still unread. Whoever sent it wants you to work out what happened, and is not going to tell you why. Murder Phone 2 is a text detective game. You read a stranger's phone, text the people in it, and catch the one whose story does not hold. There is nothing to type. Every reply is a written choice, so the only skill that matters is reading carefully and deciding who to press. HOW A CASE GOES Unlock the phone. The passcode is on the lock screen, if you look. Open a thread and ask a question. Somebody tells you something that cannot be true, because a photo in another app says otherwise. Show them. Forward one person's message to another and watch the story change. When you know, name one person and the one piece of evidence that proves it. Then the sender asks you one more thing, and only somebody who actually read the phone can answer it. WHAT IS ON THE PHONES - Messages from everyone the owner spoke to in their last days - Photos with something wrong in them: something that should not be there, something missing, or two pictures that cannot both be true - Voicemails nobody ever played, bank statements, browser history and maps - A timeline board where you put the night back in order - A corkboard where you pin what two people said and play one against the other - Calls that ring. Answer, or let it go to voicemail PEOPLE REMEMBER HOW YOU SPOKE TO THEM Every contact has a mood. Be decent and some of them will tell you what they told nobody else. Push too hard and they shut down. If a conversation ends before you were finished, you can text them again. ELEVEN PHONES The Smoke Alarm Was Unplugged. Nobody Reported Her Missing For Nine Days. Three Sugars. Eleven Pages. Bad Weather, No Witnesses. She Left A Note, In Someone Else's Words. The Site Was Signed Off Twice. And the eighth envelope, which is the first one with a note in it. A short first phone to learn on, eight that form one season, and two that stand alone. The season adds up: people you met on one phone turn up on a later one, and what you recovered is still in your evidence bag. Every phone is a different handset, with its own wallpaper, icons, ringtone and message bubbles. They do not look alike because they did not belong to the same person. GOOD TO KNOW - No typing, no energy, no lives - No account and no login. Cases play offline - Free to play, with ads. Nothing to buy - English, Korean, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish - The cases are fiction From Crystl Labs, who made Murder Phone. Open the first envelope.
