“Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story” is a narrative puzzle game that fully embraces the intimacy and unease of rifling through someone’s lost smartphone, using that premise as the backbone for a grounded and emotionally resonant story. The developers at Accidental Queens craft the illusion of handling a real device with remarkable attention to detail, recreating the look and feel of a modern phone interface so convincingly that the boundary between player and character seems to evaporate. From the first screen, you are placed in the ambiguous role of a stranger who stumbles upon Laura’s abandoned phone. There is no exposition, no narrator, and no overt guidance; instead, the game trusts you to explore the device’s apps, messages, photos, and logs to piece together the fragments of a young woman’s life. The resulting experience is immediately immersive, drawing you into the rhythms and drama of someone else’s digital footprint in a way that feels intimate, intrusive, and strangely compelling. As you navigate Laura’s messages and social interactions, the game slowly reveals the context of her relationships, ambitions, anxieties, and the events that led to her disappearance. The storytelling is subtle and layered, relying on small details—a half-finished text, a work email, a candid photo, or a comment thread—to hint at deeper emotional and psychological tensions. Nothing is presented bluntly; much of the narrative unfolds through omission, tone shifts, and fragments that gain meaning only when connected with other clues. This piecemeal method of discovery creates a strong sense of detective work while simultaneously fostering empathy for Laura, whose life slowly becomes a mosaic of vulnerability, frustration, hope, conflict, and private struggle. The writing is grounded in everyday digital communication, which makes the emotional reveals feel authentic instead of manufactured, and the game’s subtle pacing encourages players to think critically about what they are reading rather than racing from clue to clue. The gameplay supports this narrative focus through light but thoughtfully integrated puzzles. Each locked app, obscured message, or hidden feature becomes an invitation to observe more closely and consider how personal information intertwines. Passwords may be tucked away in a photo caption, embedded in the rhythm of a conversation, or hinted at in a note buried in an app you didn’t initially consider relevant. The puzzles are never meant to frustrate; instead, they reinforce the act of understanding Laura’s life from the inside out. Their design cleverly walks a line between realism—nothing feels outre or game-like—and accessibility, ensuring the flow of the story remains smooth without trivializing the work of deduction. Because every puzzle unlocks a deeper emotional layer rather than a purely mechanical reward, the incentive becomes not just progress, but insight. Beyond its narrative and mechanics, the game exudes a quiet atmosphere shaped by minimalist visuals and a restrained soundtrack that amplifies moments of tension or melancholy without overwhelming them. The simplicity of the interface invites players to focus on the story, yet its small flourishes—an app’s color palette, the tone of a notification sound, the way a message thread appears—add personality and specificity to Laura’s world. This understated presentation complements the grounded subject matter, especially as the story increasingly explores serious themes involving emotional health, interpersonal dynamics, and the pressures of modern life. The realism and lack of sensationalism make the unfolding events feel more intimate and unsettling, emphasizing the contrast between the mundane surface of a smartphone and the complex, fragile inner life it contains. However, the very qualities that make the game distinctive may limit its appeal for some. Its short playtime, linear structure, and heavy reliance on reading mean it is not suited for those seeking action-driven gameplay, branching narratives, or replayability. The experience is much closer to interactive literature than to traditional adventure games, and once its secrets are uncovered, there is little left to return to mechanically. Additionally, the emotional weight of invading a stranger’s device is an intentional part of the experience, but it can create discomfort for players who find the premise ethically uneasy. Yet this tension is central to the game’s message, prompting reflection on how much of our personal identity is contained in our digital interactions and how easily that privacy can be exposed or misinterpreted. In its entirety, “Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story” succeeds as a thoughtful, intimate exploration of the modern digital self. It tells a human story through the fragments most people leave behind in their online lives, presenting a nuanced portrait of a young woman navigating complex pressures and relationships. While brief, the experience lingers because it feels like uncovering something real—an emotional echo that outlasts the final puzzle. For players who value subtle narrative design, empathetic storytelling, and the novelty of learning a character’s truth through authentic-feeling digital artifacts, this game stands out as a poignant and memorable entry in narrative gaming.

Just like the first game, this one is also great and easy to 100! You do the same: read messages and emails to find clues for the few puzzles there are in order to discover the truth. I liked the music in the first one better, but Laura's story is stronger in every other aspect. The narrative is more compelling and sad, especially when you read some of the messages and notes, and there are a few new elements added as well. I personally found this one easier than the other, but that's a personal impression. All in all, I recommend it!

Another game that a lot of people need to see. Pretty good puzzle game, but mostly, this is genuine, important information you may need to see, presented in a way that's digestible by anyone. Wish there was a hint button though.
