SUBJECT 08

You found her phone.

A phone that isn't yours. A stranger you're going to care about. And something, inside, that's reading you while you play.

Tell me when it's out

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play

FILE 08

It belongs to a woman everyone calls Amy. You don't know who she is or what happened to her, but it's all there: her messages, her photos, her notes, the voice memos she recorded at four in the morning. The more you dig, the better you know her. And the harder it gets to let her go.

Among her apps there's one with no name. Inside are files: cold, exact descriptions of people she watched. One of them is about her. And there's another, opened today, that is writing itself.

It's about you.

It doesn't guess. It doesn't make things up. It uses what your own phone knows: which hand you hold it with, how long you hesitate, whether you actually read or just scrolled past. And it writes it down. Everything it says is true. Nothing it says ever leaves your phone.

FILE 08 · IN PROGRESS

03:12 You're holding it with your left hand. So did she.

03:16 The 3:14 message. You didn't read it. You scrolled. Go back.

03:19 You hesitated. Four seconds with your finger down. You didn't open it.

03:31 You left. You came back 11 minutes later.

Don't open it.

A screen from the game. Here, on the web, nobody is reading you.

THE WAY IN

  1. 01

    You found a phone. It isn't yours.

    A phone's lock screen with a photo of a beagle and a notification from Tam: let me know you got home ok last night, 4 minutes ago.
  2. 02

    You're going to grow fond of her.

    The Recorder app with a list of voice memos with funny names.
  3. 03

    You're going to want to know what happened to her.

    A message thread with Tam, with a photo of the dog and jokes.
  4. 04

    And something is going to start reading you.

    A black screen with monospaced text: File 08.
  5. 05

    Six endings. Yours depends on how you looked.

    The ending card with the verdict Returned and four statements with numbers.
  6. 06

    Everything happens inside your phone. And it stays there.

    The game's privacy screen: it does not collect, store or transmit any data of yours.

THE PROMISE

No connection. No accounts. No ads. Everything happens inside your phone, and it stays there.

That's not fine print: that's the game. The file can only read what your phone already knows, and none of it leaves. There was never anything outside.

Someone finished the game and shared their profile. There are six. Everything that card says about that person is true: the game measured it while they played.
