Lifeline: Flatline in IOS

Our Expert Score

85/100

Lifeline: Flatline is a terrifying departure for the series. While previous games were sci-fi adventures, Flatline dives headfirst into psychological horror. You are connected to Wynn, a woman who has just woken up in a dark, terrifying medical facility. Unlike Taylor from the first game, Wynn is panicked and in immediate danger, which makes the 'real-time' notifications much more stressful.

The writing is top-notch, using the text-based format to let your imagination fill in the horrors that Wynn is seeing. The heartbeat monitor feature adds a layer of tension that previous games lacked—you can literally see her heart rate spike when she’s scared. It’s a short, intense experience that shows just how effective minimalist storytelling can be. If you have a pair of headphones and a dark room, this game will definitely get under your skin.

Praise for Lifeline:

“I’ve played many games that I find engrossing, but Lifeline may be one of the first that changed the way I thought about my daily routine, which leapt off the screen and became a part of my lived experience.” - Eli Cymet, Gamezebo

“For a few brief hours I cared – really cared – about the fate of a completely fictional character. I don’t think any other game I’ve played has made me feel that way before.” - Matt Thrower, PocketGamer
