A puzzle game based on a simple premise: you find an unlocked phone and need to flick through things on it to find out to whom this phone belonged to. What makes it particularly interesting is the presentation; this is one game where I'd recommend playing it on your phone to get the most authentic experience.
The puzzle itself hinges on the exploration and navigation of the phone. Only a few apps are unlocked at the start, and there are limited places to input information so your starting path feels fairly obvious. Perhaps it's just me though but I found the locations of each answer to be slightly frustrating; while the broader idea of the game is fun, as I played I came to know that I simply don't find trawling through a phone especially engaging.
The game presents a moral angle to proceedings (i.e. will you keep the phone or return it) but that's not really there in practice - players don't actually have a sense of agency over the story, but the resolution regarding the phone's true owner is powerful and realistic and thumbing through their phone is tactile and intimate in a way that I expect will resonate with some.
