You hooked me the moment I realised I  _am_  the phone. The story had nice turns too and the dialogue options were great.

I really liked trying to make the guy trust me--I just wish that convincing him was harder.

The art is also impressive. I kind of wish that when you had to make a choice it was a little bit more obvious that it is contrary to just the narrative.

The options for you to choose what to say are funny, and so are the responses of the characters.\n\nWould have wished for a little more exploration of the ship, or some different outcomes for different choices. Also I think if one would be able to interact with the environment (induce poltergeist-phenomenona?) by clicking on items would make this even more interesting experience.\n\nBut all in all an enjoyable game with an engaging story.
