As a follow-up to the mobile game it released earlier this year—'A Normal Lost Phone'—video game development studio Accidental Queens is now introducing 'Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story.'
Within the app, gameplay is based around the idea of a lost phone being discovered by an unrelated person who has the chance to uncover the applications used, emails, text messages and pictures from the phone's owner—as well as any of their secrets. In Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story, players have the opportunity to learn about Laura's friendships, professional life and even about "the events that led to her mysterious disappearance and the loss of this phone."
In comparison to the previously released A Normal Lost Phone game, Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story is said to dive deeper into darker subject matter.
