Lifeline 2 raises the bar with a new story almost twice as long as the original, with many more choices and paths to explore. Lifeline 2 features a 28-minute original soundtrack and is fully optimized for watchOS 2, delivering the best Lifeline experience on Apple Watch yet.

The second story in the Lifeline series connects you with Arika, a young woman on a deadly quest to avenge her parents and rescue her long-lost brother. Your choices will keep her alive and help her succeed as she faces mortal danger on her way to a final, fateful showdown against the forces that threaten all of humanity.

Lifeline stories play out in real time. As Arika travels to complete her quest, notifications deliver new messages throughout your day. Keep up as they come in, or catch up later when you’re free. You can even respond to Arika directly from your Apple Watch or your iPhone lock screen, without launching into the app on your phone.

After completing any story branch, you can rewind to earlier parts of the story, or speed through parts you’ve already read. See what happens when you make a different choice: will you guide Arika virtuously, or cut corners to gain an edge? Seemingly simple actions can deeply affect the outcome.

Arika’s story, and the fate of the world, depend on your judgment. You will face the consequences together, because Arika is relying on YOU.


Lifeline 2 features no in-app purchases and no ads. An Internet connection is not required.


Praise for the original Lifeline:

“[A] surprising iPhone and Apple Watch bestseller is pushing the boundaries of fiction” - boingboing.net

“This is the best game on the Apple Watch” - Time.com

“I’ve played many games that I find engrossing, but Lifeline may be one of the first that changed the way I thought about my daily routine, which leapt off the screen and became a part of my lived experience.” - Eli Cymet, Gamezebo

“For a few brief hours I cared – really cared – about the fate of a completely fictional character. I don’t think any other game I’ve played has made me feel that way before.” - Matt Thrower, PocketGamer

Favorite Lifeline

Favorite lifeline aside from possibly the original book - well worth the purchase


Keeps restarting....
raymaffit

Don’t understand it.... I play for a day and a half or so and it resets to where I give my name.... happened several times now.... would be fun if I could actually play.


Eh

The game was okay but I couldn't even get through half of it. Honestly she talks too much at the beginning of the game and the plot isn't all that good. Edit: Tried playing this again just for the hell of it and i still stand by what i said. Not to mention the fact that she has a terrible attitude for someone who constantly needs advice and help. Shes your typical fiction teenager i guess


Love the Series, not the best installment
Stella79058

Mostly just in comparison! I did the Arctic story line a few months ago and came across this game so I bought it! I think it fell a little flat just in comparison to the other installments. Adams was such an alive character and I ended up creating a fun meta story about why they were able to reach out to me and obviously they DID need urgent help. Arika is... less like that? It could be for other people, but it just makes me miss the prior games! Lots of love towards the writers and devs, just if recommend another one of their games!


Thank you
DragonBornCF

My vocabulary is probably under qualified to describe my experience what these games so I’ll state it simply. I love these games every one of them. The story was captivating between the realistic characters conversations references it is almost impossible not to feel sad when you have to wait for actions like sleeping or traveling to be performed. I was so glad when I found out about this series and it is well worth the money. I can’t wait for the storylines to continue. Thank you for the passion these stories are told with.

Played a while on my watch and when I went back to my phone it erased my progress and made me start from where I had left off on my phone


Good!

Love all the lifeline games. This one I enjoyed, but not quite as much as the other lifeline games. The thing I really enjoyed about the other games is that I always ended up screwing up and having to rewind and think about things to get the good ending- like a lot of rewinding lol. But this game I didn’t have to rewind at all, not even once, to get the good ending. Still liked it though.


Can’t Get Through the Monastery
Chelle1476

I have been playing for over 2 weeks and can’t get through the monastery scene. I’m over frustrated and have completely given up. Turn right, turn left, turn right. I feel like Arika and I’m just going in circles... After how much fun the first game was I certainly didn’t expect this much frustration and almost zero fun.


Massive bug
Renagale.

So far I am enjoying the story it's playing out well and I feel like I'm having conversations with a real person but after a few hours I opened the app on my phone rather then my watch and noticed it was at the beginning so I though oh well I'll just play on my watch and when I reloaded it on my watch it restarted the entire story.... played it for a few hours while at work for about 8 hours now I have to do everything again to get back to the same point
