He lacks any real character and at best can be described as "common", "annoying", "whiny" and only occasionally "witty". I suppose it makes him relatable but it's only a matter of time until he annoys the hell out of you, especially if he keeps dying because of random choices.Yes, the choices. This is the perfect example of bad and meaningless choices that all CYOA games should avoid. For every situation, there are only two choices, and 90% of the time the choice is whether to go "left" or "right". That's it. You'll spend hours telling the protagonist to go in one direction or the other without any meaningful interactions. The protagonist then continiously asks you whether you are absolutely sure you want him to go this way and continues to whine. If you ignore his whining, congratulations. Most of the time, he'll end up dead and you'll have to replay a large chunk of the game.Lastly, the story. What starts as an interesting space horror/mystery rapidly devolves into some typical b-movie and ends. Without spoiling anything, I was both surprised and dissapointed by the ending, having wandered in space for many days before reaching a quick and unsatisfying conclusion.Oh, and if you want a good CYOA game with similiar mechanics but better story, mystery and real choices, you should play "Lost Crew" instead.. Honestly, storyline-wise this is a great game. I was already a fan of this, so the steam version seems like an extension. I do think that it's a better experience on a mobile phone, as the price is less and it works better with the concept of waiting for a reply. However, either way, this is a great game that you should try.EDIT: At the time of writing that, i had not yet completed the full game, and assumed that it would all be the same.There is actually a great addition to the storyline, once you finish the game in all slow-mode (might also appear under different curcumstances, but thats when i got it)my point being, there IS something extra for a fan of the mobile version, and i recommend it to people who have already played that, too.. Good writing and surprisingly tense.. I enjoy all of the Lifeline games. If you don't have patience, then I wouldn't recommend that you play it. It's a casual game and you just need to have it going on in the background. Your computer will let you know what you have a message or remind you that Taylor needs you.Taylor is like a friend of yours who messages you every so often, sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. He asks you for advice, he tells you what's going on in pretty great detail. I loved having him on my phone. I'd love getting random messages from him! (Alex Esposito is my favourite Lifeline companion, though! But Taylor's the Lifeline mascot.) After I finish each game, I miss them! I was excited that this game showed up here on Steam because A) I'm a sucker for achievements and B) It means it can reach more gamers, not just as an app on your phone. I will be super excited when Crisis Line shows up on here!Give it a go if you want a real-time experience of having a friend stuck in space and you're his only companion. I think that's a pretty rad idea.You can honestly play another game at the same time. Taylor will let you know when he needs your input.<3 BIG FISH. Played most of the lifeline games on mobile before trying this one on Steam. Originally came to the series after playing "The Wolf Among Us" and the fact Dave Justus was involved made me interested enough to pick it up on Android.I'm not 100% sold on the translation from a mobile game, which is a lot easier to leave running and come back to later, to a desktop game. As a result playtime on steam isn't truly reflective of time spent with the game as a lot of that was leaving it minimised waiting for the next event.Def recommend using the fast mode as soon as you unlock it which is a bit of a shame since in the mobile version waiting for the next response is part of the enjoyment for me.Story is interesting, decisions can sometimes be difficult at a first glance (we won't mention how many times I got Taylor killed.)Certainly worth picking up if you like choose your own adventure type games. If you enjoy it I'd really recommend picking up some more of the series on mobile.. TL;DR Lifeline is a well written choose your own adventure style game that is played in real time. I am changing my review from a negative to a positive after learning more about this game and giving it another try. Having tried it again I found that I enjoyed Lifeline for what it is and hope to see more of these games on Steam, It looks like there are 5 other games in this series.My main problem with the game originally was that it would keep pausing in the story and just give you a message that "Taylor is busy", and some of these pauses would take hours before the story would continue. I have since been told that this game was originally designed as a mobile game, and was meant to be played in "real time" as Taylor was messaging you. I bought this game from the Google store and it turned out to be a game concept that works great on your phone. I then retried it on Steam and found it to be enjoyable to play through once I knew what to expect. There is an option to put the game into Fast Mode once you die the first time. Fast mode allows you to play the game without any pauses in the story, so Taylor will respond to you imminently making the game play much quicker. There is also an option after you die or beat the game to go back to a previous chapter in the story and choose a different path. A couple of changes I would like to see an option to put the game into Fast Mode from the start of the game. The real time play is an interesting idea and works well on my phone, but it was a little tedious on PC. I would also like to see a couple of more options to go back in the story, maybe a bookmark location so that you can jump right to a choice you made that ended badly for you quickly. One other think I would like to see is a way to exit the game properly. Right now Lifeline uses Steam Notifications to tell you when you get a message from Taylor so you know when the story is progressing, so when you exit the game, it keep running in the background. This isn't really a problem until you try to exit Steam and just keep getting a message to shut down Lifeline before you can close the game. The only way I can close the game right now is in the Task Manager and force it to shutdown.. I really wanted to play this game but it stopped working after 2 bits of dialogue. I don't know why this is because I can play other games fine but I can't play this. It starts up alright but once I try to play, it just goes black. Hopefully, I can play this in the future.
