Context is for losers. Let's read the Lifeline series!
no not the lifetime series
Lifeline! It's like that thing from Who Wants to be a Millionare, except instead of helping a friend win cash prizes we instead tell a stranger how to live their lives over the course of several days. and i do mean several days literally This game series runs off of real time; when a character is set on doing something, they go and "do" it. This can mean a 15 minute wait for a walk, or a 6 hour wait for them to sleep. its kinda neat i think Anyway, there's seven of these games currently, and we'll be playing through them all. And by "we" I mean I'll be recording the story and Turtle will be given the advancment choices without any story knowledge or context as to what they're for. whats the worst that could happen Table of Contents: Lifeline: Day one(shortly) |

Bad Turns
There's a few points where turtle leads our friend Taylor to their unfortunate demise here on day 1, and I figured I'd log them separately here.
The first comes back at the option to climb the canyon or leave it; I unfortunately forgot to grab the picture of the response but Taylor starts to complain but ultimately just "what's the worst that could happen. well rude The second comes at the end of the day, deciding on where to sleep: the unfortunate part about this one is that it goes through several hours before giving you the notification How many terrible fates will Taylor meet before the end? Only time will tell. |

I'd berate turtle for obviously never taking a first aid class but I guess he didn't actually have the context to make a real decision in "pull it out/leave it in." You're off the hook this time, turtle.

I love the idea of this game but I hate the writing in this game. (I played it a few years back when it was free on the App Store.)

Was it just the one actual death? I'm surprised turtle didn't make him more dead than that.
