Very short and wraps up before it really gets going. It ends up feeling like a trailer for a game rather than an actual full-length one. This is basically a filler episode.
- Sand_Bars · v2.1
I love how the developers added this amazing storyline and how it ties into the main game. If you are a player that has not yet played the original, I would highly suggest playing through it in November, then in December or January play this! The soundtrack is so good and eerie, which helps build the tension as you navigate the ship to help Taylor escape. I can’t wait to play the next one and the newer one in the series, please, keep making these as I want to learn more about the Greens and the space force that exists in this game. 5 stars no questions asked.
- Just_A_Guy_With_A_BIble · v2.1
Loved it
- Betsy & Ari · v2.1
I played the first one, and it was pretty creepy… or at least I think it was the first. Now I’m playing others and am frustrated that I don't know their logical order. I’m playing two at once now that I’ve lost them.
- PhelineCat · v2.1
I like the continuation of the story and I love the fact that you can make the font bigger and you could also see where he’s at throughout the game so it’s got it labeled for you. It was very enjoyable and I’ve played many times in the series.
- Kiwi1736 · v2.1
These games are amazing. Their gripping they’re funny they’re touching. You will go through quite a bit of different emotions. They’re absolutely worth the money. Any science fiction fan this is a must to play.
- Red53508 · v2.1
I can only imagine how difficult writing choose your adventure games can be given you have to account for so much. But whereas Lifeline and Lifeline 2 account for it very well, this game does not. I've played it before a long time ago, and having done things a little differently than that play through I'm noticing that you can miss and entire chunk of the game that gives meaningful story details. Now, this would be okay if the rest of the game reflected that you missed it, but this game does not. At a certain point near the end of the story the characters act like that chunk of the story happened even though in my play through this time around did not. It gets very confusing and is rather bothersome.
- jtf1208 · v2.1
Really enjoyed the game. Keep them coming.
- Garciares04 · v2.1
Played through first one, was amazing, played this one, was even better. Did everything right right, up until the very last choice where I messed up and got the worst ending. Back up to just that choice on a gamble and turns out thats the best possible ending, so pog I guess. Not a lot of explanation for the end, but leaves a lot of room for a sequel. Maybe book. Who knows. Either way, hype game, it’s cheap, worth the time.
- im_sigh · v2.1
I played the first lifeline and of course, as lifeline players do, had to download the sequel. BUT WHERE IS THE FAST MODE??? this one is just painfully slow to play through because 20% of the game is taylors dialogue, the other is just WAITING for her to do SOMETHING. i cant do it anymore 😂
- Gatorade ✅ · v2.0
I love Taylor. That’s it. That’s the review.
- Seris33 · v2.0
I feel like this one was much harder than the last one but I still loved every second of it
- New flyers will love · v2.0
Awesome! I want more!!!
- SamWestRanch · v2.0
Alright, so I just finished this one right after winning the first game. Much to my great relief, Taylor remembered me from the first game and made me rly happyyyy! It was such a good plot! The only reason I didn’t rate 5 stars was cause I wish it was longer. I wish there were multiple days involved…but would totallly say worth the money
- ♡Linnéa · v2.0
SPOILERS! Spoilers …… ….. Ok, so at towards the beginning of the story I noticed that after Taylor and i agreed to go to the cockpit, in the next conversation, one choice says “keep heading to the ready room” even though we never talked about that.
- WritingAreveiwJustCuz · v2.0
This is the second game in the series. I’m drawn to it! I care about Taylor and am kinda stressed when I don’t immediately hear from (her/him?). Really great game and series
- TDC22 · v2.0
The legendary story of Taylor continues and its quite as good as the first one. A must buy!
- Ca$h Bácsi · v2.0
I enjoyed this game. Taylor is my hero.
- Honeyp2k · v2.0
Love Taylor’s adventures and this one was beautifully written.
- Myitt · v2.0
I recommend if you played lifeline before
- Backlight 2011 · v2.0
thanks for making me cry after getting deeply connected to Taylor. just, everything that happens. i almost ed started crying sooner but the end just really hit me. They feel like a real person when you’re taking to them and you get connected and it just makes everything so much more impactful
- dhdbsnowf · v2.0
I enjoyed the writing and flow of the game… like reconnecting with an old friend from the first one.
- Kingdust · v1.2
Whereas the first game felt very open ended, had an awesome and mysterious plot, and made you enjoy every step of the way, this game instead railroads you, forcing you to find the ONE way you can beat the game. It ruins the climax and any enjoyment you could get. There was a poor job writing the script, as you can tell there are way too many times where it says something which doesn’t quite line up with your other. You can tell that they didn’t really test play the game because if they did they certainly would’ve fixed some of these things. the Taylor also becomes a very annoying character as they take one of his many personality traits from the first game and turn his character into a very one sided guy who only makes pop culture references literally every other time he speaks, and it just gets really really annoying.
- SneakyNinja4782 · v1.2
I literally started crying it’s one of my favorite games and I loved Taylor as a character and everything in general
- bgathing · v1.2
Had fun, made it through on my first time so I suspected that there was only one outcome but played it again and made different choices and lost. Cool game.
- Thadiousrex · v1.2
I finished in 3 days. It’s so fun and has great cliffhangers that leave you on the edge of your seat! Though it’s a bit violent it truly fascinated me and I really enjoyed this one and the first one! Can’t wait to move on to the next!!
- Bbigda · v1.2
it’s says you’re compatible with watchos 8 which doesn’t exist and it won’t let me put it on my watch witch is one of the main reasons I bought the game because I loved the first taylor adventure. please fix it
- MicahMan0 · v1.2
I’m only about an hour into the game and it is already the best game on my phone.
- PseudoMaxwell · v1.2
SO annoying having to wait. Seriously, I play once a month or so because I’m busy again by the time he comes through again. SO annoying. ❌❌❌
- Torig53 · v1.2
I have played this daily for a week and still no game here. I don't know if there is anything worth waiting for. So far just dumb dialog.
- JcJ39 · v1.2
This is really good game it doesn’t go fast the first time you play it so you might be impatient about how long it takes but it’s worth it.
- Kuro Ito · v1.2
There’s too much time in between actions I have to wait a long time before Taylor is ready.
- cnj107 · v1.2
I played the first Lifeline game and really liked the main character, Taylor. I appreciated the pop culture references and only had to look up one. The game is written in a way that feels like real banter between friends. It captivated me. I admit I had to go back for a second round to get to the “best possible” outcome. I loved the ability to fast track the game the second time I played. Great game that captures your attention and keeps it throughout.
- BrieTalon · v1.2
Best game I’ve played in a while, make that ever.
- chezdaworld · v1.2
Hey I’m a little late rip some money on my last iPhone but ehh, the storyline continues very interesting follow up because like the last one it could go anywhere it wants.. the story that is another thing. “I’m just gonna stay in my uncomfortable bunk... and be uncomfortable “ [Taylor is uncomfortable] man I laughed so hard
- Cancerous Crusader · v1.2
I have played this game six or seven times, and I never get tired of it. No matter how many times I play it, I fall in love with Taylor’s character and the story all over again. As with all the Lifeline stories—10/10!
- Clarkleberry · v1.2
It’s Good I Have Not Finished it But I like it just as I liked the other lifelines
- Supreme Wolf 57 · v1.2
I swear, the more I play this game and other lifelines, the more I think that this world and universe is real. That’s how good the storytelling is. We need more Taylor stories. We need more lifeline. Of all the lifeline games, Taylor touches me the most!
- GamerofGlory · v1.2
I would rate 5 if you added fast mode because I don’t like waiting
- Treemanjim · v1.2
Nuff said.
- Wanna laugh? · v1.2
Not as good as the first, which you must play before playing this one. Your choices don’t really matter, as you’ll tell him to do something and he’ll do what he wants to do anyway. Or you’ll choose the wrong path and he makes it clear you’re going to get killed and asks you to confirm your choice (just like the first). I didn’t die on my first play through (I got the best ending first try) and I replayed it 4 times to try and find alternate endings, but all I could find were obvious deaths. Still, the gameplay is good and they are short stories worth reading. 4 stars.
- Zero Ehxe · v1.2
But it keeps resetting itself to the same point. I cant progress through the story, both phone and watch are affected.
- chopblok · v1.2
I really love these lifeline stories. They seem so real and are packed with conflict and emotions. My only drawback is waiting for Taylor to do things gets a little tedious but that is just my opinion. Besides, the fast mode that comes after Taylor dies is a great way to try all the different endings to the story. Good job.
- disbvajc · v1.2
Ok here’s the problem. I was VERY excited to try and find the other game to this series (this one) and I got it. The only thing I didnt realize that this is the same exact game as halfway to infinity. So I just wasted 2 bucks on the same thing. It’s rare that I receive money. I request that you make it a bit clearer that the two games are the same.
- foxy yonder Pirate · v1.2
The original Lifeline was amazing and when I found out there was even more, I was so excited. These games can really give you an aspect of what “possible” life forms that could be on-other planets. Silent Night and the others really let us enjoy listening to them. It is also great to hear the messages on notifications and that it’s all timed out to seem realistic. Keep up the good work!
- thecreativedog · v1.2
I live for this Game! Taylor’s story is so amazing!!
- Ravenofthebirds · v1.2
This is choose-your-own-adventure app. Enjoyed it.
- Gebby69 · v1.2
I enjoy these games, even though I’m not doing any action and I can’t see the character. I feel the suspense
- I.M.A · v1.2
The story was very engaging, and I was very curious how it would end. 4 stars due to: * Certain prerequisites for a good ending require choices, which aren’t that different from alternatives. Thus, getting those or not is kinda random. * Progress on the Apple Watch app doesn’t sync into the phone.
- Partisan_Terran · v1.2
I just really wish they were all better organized. I just payed for one last night that was free in the Library app that I didn’t even know about until it popped up in ANOTHER game I payed for. Seriously love these little stories though. So enveloping.
