Fatal Text

Chat-based mystery

Fatal Text is a PC chat mystery that begins after its creator dies and the journalist investigating his death vanishes. Your phone number appears in the creator’s notes, and strangers start asking you for help and warning you to stay out of the case.

Advice and secrets

You choose replies to people whose lives are on the line, then piece together information from different chats to advise them what to do next. You can reassure someone, lie, or share a secret another person asked you to keep. The investigation leads to medical secrets and organ trafficking, and a familiar avatar doesn’t guarantee the same person is still typing.
