About
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.

Critic reviews
- 9.0Players will find a compelling companion in Arika and an engaging set of challenges with multiple outcomes worth the time investment and necessary patience. To anyone bemoaning the empty tapping of today’s mobile games, Lifeline 2 offers a rich narrative experience sure to satisfy lovers of the written word.
- 7.0Lifeline 2 is a good follow-up to the original, but a couple of presentation and mechanical issues keep it from truly surpassing the first game. At this point I’d say they’re both about neck and neck in terms of worth playing-ness, with your preference of setting being the deciding factor.
- Lifeline 2 propose une histoire intéressante le temps de quelques jours et conserve tous les éléments de gameplay qui permettent une narration interactive efficace. Avec quelques nouveautés appréciables, notamment le pont de connexion pour lire les propos d’un troisième personnage, le jeu réussit à nous emporter dans un univers magique qui pourrait presque paraitre réel.
