NoStranger

NoStranger is not a game, it's a conversation.
As the app opens, you receive a message from a stranger.
But by the end of your experience, you will know his name, his motivation, and his dark secret.

You will be led on a user-choice-driven narrative; searching through blogs, contacting the story’s characters, and scouring social media websites to find out more. Through real-time conversation, you will delve deep, and sometimes not so deep ;), exploring the interconnectedness of our virtual world.

With inspiration from titles such as LifeLine and Her Story,
​NoStranger uses real websites, phone numbers, and videos to create a believable, immersive experience.

Trigger Warnings: This narrative includes topics of suicide and violence.

The game keeps starting over at a certain point and no matter how much I try to progress, it will not move on from that particular part. I would love to play the game but it will not let me move forward. Edit: The update has fixed the game, which is great, but now ads popup during gameplay every 1-3 minutes, which is annoying as they get in the way. Still an interesting game so far though.

One of the most unique genre I have ever played! You can't assume that this is going to be a purely conversation type of storytelling. It has variety to keep you engaged. My only gripe with this is that my progress goes back to a certain point again once the game closes. Breaks the immersion and irritating since this happened 3 times.

Absolutely AMAZING. Honestly, when I finished it I couldn't wait to come and give a review,, which I don't do for most games. This srsly exceeded expectations, it started off normally but got really immersive and DANG this was well written. Subtle hints to make you notice something is amiss but not totally catch on until it all comes together. Did I mention I really loved the ending?? One thing I would suggest is to allow players to watch ads to reduce the time tho? But otherwise awesome job!!!

I love the storyline and the game doesn't have any ads to stop me in the middle of a conversation but I'm having trouble with saving my progress. If I leave the game for more than two ours I lose my progress and go back to a decision I made some time ago. It has happened a lot of times. I guess the game has a "save" button but I can't find it. Is there anyway for me to not lose my progress since this is becoming a bit of annoying😅

This is the most amazing game I have EVER played on my phone. I was hooked the entire time. And it felt EXTREMELY real, sometimes I forgot I was even playing a game. Most games like this just have puzzles, but with this one, you have to dig through real websites to find the information, and I love that. You can definitely tell that so much thought went into this game. It's 100% free, unless you want to pay for no ads or additonal hints. The game even offers to cut wait time if you watch ads!

I hate you developer for the ending, jk(half). The game is so cool! The riddles were a bit hard but I still can answer them. The character is so realistic that sometimes I need to remind myself that it's a fictional character. The game itself is underrated and I don't understand why, it's one of best game ever! I'm hoping to see another game like this one. Edit: I apologise, it was supposed to be 'conversation', not a game ;)

I have no words to describe it other than amazing. My only problem is the annoying popups which dampen the thrilling game experience a little(like having some stupid game ad in the middle of a very serious conversation) but the game was so amazing that I'll let that slide. I am amazed, everything felt very real. I had alot of fun reading the blogs and stuff and I'm amazed at the amount of effort used to make this game. I hope you make more games like this because I will definitely play it!

Jes. A. Feb 21, 2020     

Definitely the best game I've ever played on mobile. I was hooked. Loved the way it felt like I was texting a real person, who seemed so mysterious and fascinating, and also loved the challenges like searching stuff on Google Maps, the riddles etc. Incredibly engaging, well done. If you haven't played this yet, you're missing out.

So far great story... Since the developer responded I wanted to take the time to edit my review... the amount of time put into this is outstandingly impressive. From youtube channels to tumblers, a lot of effort went into the smallest of details. That shows a true passion for their work. Bravo and keep it up!!

Everytime I clicked converse it would show the privacy thing, I would click my answer then the screen us a blank blue screen and I even waited a few minutes on that screen and nothing happened. I was reading the reviews and it seems like a really good game I just can't play it.

dvo. Jul 30, 2020     

What a story! I felt oddly emtpy after finishing it. It was so real. The only issue I had was: I don't know if it's something about my phone but none of the tinyurl links worked for me. It always said "we can't find this url" sort of thing. Never got to see the stuff. But after all, I really am amazed by the game, thank you devs! DMLM

A. G. u. Jan 3, 2019     

after the 24 hour wait, I opened the app and the converstasion and 24 hour timer restarted. (sorry for any spelling mistakes or if I made the sentence wrong. english is my second language) edit #1:before the timer was the date in which the girl didn't show up for an hour, so Adam needed some time for himself. edit #2: everything is working again. Thank you for a great game! :)

The game would not save my progress until I reached the next chapter, which means that the time factor was useless and I kept having to play the same story over and over. It was frustrating. The story overall was interesting.

SAC. Y. May 18, 2020     

Wow. Just wow. This is not merely a game. I seriously doubted at certain moments that I was actually involved in something. At times, it even felt as if I really found a new friend in "Adam". The creativity and the effort put in this is absolutely beautiful. I applaud you. Also, I love the fact that you made watching it continuously possible by watching ads. I loved it so much I wouldn't have been able to wait for days to play it.

So far, I'm having trouble understanding the glowing reviews. I feel like I'm being bombarded by texts from a smart but psychopathic high schooler w/ ADHD. And after 20 messages that just happen all at once, you're back to waiting again (you can watch an ad to skip the wait, but the sheer number of these gets tiring). I'm trying to plow through it hoping maybe something really cool will happen soon to change my mind; there has to be a reason for all the kudos, right? I'll update if that happens.

Kay. A. May 31, 2020     

It been a while since I found a great app to play threw. The story was outstanding and the running around the internet was super fun. Being able to watch adds instead of waiting or purchases was also very cool. Thanks creators!

The game always misses its save point. Sends me back to previous save points all the time. Really halts the progress. Its really annoying. Looked good at the start but I can never finish the game at this rate. Uninstalled.

Esp. I. May 29, 2019     

as far as I got I really enjoyed the story, the riddles where easy, I wish they were more complex, my problem was a bug, everytime I started chapter 3 and waited the respective time it restarted in the middle of the chapter two, that's the reason why I never finished the story

Mus. L. Nov 25, 2020     

This game is awesome! Very well written. There was enough hints so the ending wasn't a complete shock, but not too much were I could accurately guess what was going on this entire time. This really pulled at my heart strings, and I felt really connected with what was going on.

Jou. L. Jun 10, 2019     

Very relatable! It's been very engaging so far. Simple gameplay yet unique. And the conversational style is casual but thought provoking. Good immersive experience and nuances of narrative.

Kat. Aug 21, 2020     

This game was really, really great. I thoroughly enjoyed the riddles, searching the internet, and waiting to get a notification for the next message. I had no idea what to expect, but NoStranger satisfied whatever I was looking for. The twist at the end was so unexpected and it was delivered flawlessly.

Gho. I. T. Aug 4, 2019     

I've enjoyed playing the game. It's pretty unique also for the fact that the other person is away for some time like normal people and you can interact with different things like games ect. It's really interesting! It would be great to have another story.

Avi. H. Jul 29, 2020     

An amazing in-depth game. You need to be thorough, commited to the gameplay & find every single clue as possible. I love it, such an advanced yet challenging game. Great job, developers!

A. G. u. Dec 24, 2018     

This is such a realistic game! I love the way it let's you type in your own options gives out riddles links and YouTube videos Please make a part two of this game! I love at the end it tells you the questions you answered on a notebook this game is to die for! The way you can wait for him when he's doing something is the best ! Waiting for the text like you would in real life.

Han. F. Oct 23, 2019     

I played this game about a year ago (I installed it again just so I could leave this review) and I still think about it a lot. The ending terrified me but until then I was so happy talking to Adam. The plot twist at the end legitimately made me think about certain issues I have regarding relationships in real life and helped me recover from a previous toxic friendship I've had. Thanks for existing

Dwy. J. Nov 14, 2019     

The interface and accesibility to outer media/link can use a touch-up. Nonetheless, all little details to the foreboding nature of the story is well-narrated and will stuck with you at least for days. DMLM :')

Ali. D. Oct 9, 2018     

Its an interesting premise. The game would never save my progress. I would always go right back to the first conversation. I never finished because it got frustrating.

Gez. _. Nov 15, 2018     

The game is decent but I'm about ready to call it quits, the long waits are bad enough with out watching ads or using flubertons. But the game keeps reseting to the same spot any time the app gets closed

Jes. -. Nov 8, 2021     

Real nice, very entertaining. The waiting times are immersive. Love the puzzles, not too easy but not too hard. Best sim I've played so far! Want more!

Hi. H. Jul 8, 2020     

I can't even explain how good of a game this is, there was a time where I thought I found a genuine friend in Adam, but I had to remind myself that it was just a game. Coming from someone who is very non emotional, the ending just about made me cry. The game developers did such a great job, kudos to them!♥️
