iOS

Plug in Digital has announced the Breathtaking Stories bundle, which will be available for iOS until October 31st. As the name implies, it includes four narrative-driven games you can snag for $4.99 instead of the $13.96 it would cost to buy them individually.

The games included in the bundle are A Normal Lost Phone, Another Lost Phone, Alt-Frequencies, and Bury Me, My Love. These are all fairly old titles, with the earliest launching in 2017. But they're still worth your time if you missed them when they initially released.

A Normal Lost Phone

A Normal Lost Phone sees you searching through a phone's text, pictures and apps to learn more about its former owner. From there, you'll slowly unravel the story of how the phone became lost in the first place and where its owner is now.

Another Lost Phone

Much like its predecessor, Another Lost Phone sees you scouring through a phone you've found. Once again, that means checking through messages, pictures and apps to unlock the next part of the story. It's essentially a puzzle game presented in an original way.

Alt-Frequencies

Alt-Frequencies is a narrative mystery with a focus on audio. The premise is that everyone is stuck in a time loop without realising it. Using a radio, you will pause, rewind and record parts of broadcasts to uncover the truth behind what's going on.

Bury Me, My Love

Finally, we have Bury Me, My Love. It follows a Syrian refugee called Nour and her husband, Majd. Nour embarks on a dangerous journey to reach the safety of Europe while Majd remains behind. The pair communicate via text, and each response you choose affects the ending. There are 19 in total, giving Bury Me, My Love some replay value if you want to see what happens in all of them.
