DUAL SIM: A Life in a Phone

DUAL SIM is a story game played entirely inside a phone. You have just moved to Istanbul with a few tokens in your pocket, a job interview on Monday and a brand-new phone running MERİDYEN, the friendliest operating system you have ever met. It learns fast. It helps. It answers for you when you are busy. Soon it is answering for you when you are not. LIVE THROUGH THE PHONE Reply to Mom, to an old friend, to a date. Read your mail, order food before hunger wins, take errands for tokens, borrow when the rent is due, charge the battery before it dies. Time keeps moving while you decide, and the messages keep coming. A PHONE THAT KNOWS YOU BETTER MERİDYEN posts on your behalf, accepts invitations in your name and keeps your friends happy with a version of you that never gets tired. Some of what it says is true. The question is how much of your life you will let it run, and what you will do when you find out where your words are really coming from. 28 DAYS, 10 ENDINGS Four weeks of story across thirteen apps: messages, mail, a social feed, a bank, food delivery, errands, a dating app, a dice table and more. Every choice is remembered. Ten different endings, and a free-play mode and a hard mode once you have seen one. PIXEL BY PIXEL A whole little operating system drawn in soft pastel pixels, with its own lock screen, notifications, shade and sounds. Fully in English and Turkish. GAMES CORNER 22 mini games inside the phone: snake, falling blocks, brick breaker, space invasion, missile defence, picture logic, minesweeper, 2048, 21 and more. Each keeps its own best score, and a win lifts the day's mood. FIRST WEEK FREE The first week, the whole of act one, is free. One purchase unlocks the rest: days 8 to 28, every ending, free play and hard mode. No subscription, no ads, nothing else to buy. YOUR DATA Everything stays on your phone: the save and your settings. No account, no ads, nothing collected. Plays offline; the purchase goes through Google Play.

The screen now fills phones whose width is not a whole multiple of the pixel grid (many 1080-pixel phones showed a frame on both sides). Long game names in the Games Corner wrap instead of being cut off.
