Peek a Phone popularized short missions built around access to fictional phones. Players looking for an alternative usually want either more deduction, an iPhone-focused option, a continuous story or a different tone.

Diva Sherlock — multiple cases with evidence questions

Diva Sherlock contains sixteen self-contained phone investigations. Instead of completing a short mission objective, the player answers twelve questions that force evidence from several apps to agree.

It is currently an Apple-platform option with a complete first case free. Publisher disclosure: it is our game.

An Elmwood Trail — one larger missing-person case

Choose An Elmwood Trail when the appeal is a central story, recurring characters and episode progression rather than a rotating library of cases.

Duskwood — conversation and relationships

Choose Duskwood when you want a long messenger-led story and decisions in an established group. Its interaction rhythm differs from searching a fresh phone in every case.

SIMULACRA — the horror branch

Choose SIMULACRA when the idea of a corrupted, threatening device is the main attraction. It is a poor match for players avoiding disturbing imagery or jumpscares.
