What do you think?

Just completed the playthrough - wow. Interesting kind of a text adventure! It made me want to learn a certain type of code. :D Could be handy some day. Nice atmosphere and interesting setting.

Cool text-adventure entry! Although, too long for me to finish this time around, this definitely scores points for the atmosphere. It really lies in the details: The weather changes, I turn on my lamp when it's dark, the sound of key-clacking when I type.

In the future, please add a save system!

Fascinating concept! At first I struggled a little with getting the commands fast down, so I had to abuse the help menu. But then slowly it felt more natural and I think it was a big part of the way I was sucked into the game. It felt real - realer than many other games of the genre.

I liked it!

Really cool idea and execution, a nice 'Stories untold' vibe going on there.

I just wish there were shortcuts because having to type 'back' all the time, or 'say 1' when there is just one option is a bit tedious.

Very cool concept and really interesting story. I would have liked a bit more streamlined interface (rather than typing "say 1" every time or having to type "contact myserious_signal" after already setting the frequency) as this makes advancing the story a bit of a chore.

It would also be nice to have the emails sorted latest-to-oldest. The order seems to change at random.

Still, I really liked it!

STORY

Another day in this strange new paradise.

During these bizarre new times the world is in disarray. Cities have been relegated to Quarantinze Zones, letting the sectors that once hosted a bustling part of city-life fall back into the hands of nature. Use your drone to explore abandoned buildings such as hospitals and police stations. Scavenge missing components to upgrade your radio tower. Make radio contact with friends, and uncover the truth behind missing persons and a series of mysterious signals using a specialized decoder.

Happy 2120.
