A wrong number from a prison cell. Forty-two days to prove he did not do it.

About

At 11:47 pm a stranger texts the wrong number and reaches you instead of his sister. Adam is six years into a fifteen-year sentence for a robbery he says he did not commit, writing from a phone hidden in his cell. His retrial is in forty-two days.

He is locked in and you are outside, which means the investigation splits in two: he works his memory and the people around him, you work archives, maps and public records. The verdict is computed from the evidence you actually gather, never from how much you believe him.

A real-time interactive fiction built with Expo and React Native, with local notifications and a custom narrative engine. Available in 8 languages on the App Store.
