Dead Man's Phone Unmasked is an interactive mobile crime game now available on Android and iOS
Enter the shadowy world of online sex work with Dead Man's Phone: Unmasked, a new interactive crime series available now on Android and iOS via the cutting-edge storytelling platform Scriptic. In Electric Noir Studios' interactive mobile game Dead Man's Phone: Unmasked, you play as a homicide investigator tasked with solving the murder of a man whose body was discovered on Hampstead Heath.
Put in the shoes of a homicide detective charged with cracking the case
The victim's brilliant red hair clumps and trademark golden mask suggest that she is well-known AllMyFans influencer Gemma Dream. You've tried using the victim's phone to solve the mystery of what happened to Gemma, but after searching through the victim's social media, speaking with an old ex-boyfriend, and apprehending malicious subscribers, you're still no closer to the truth.
Your story progresses as you use in-game tools such as a news app to report each arrest, maps to track suspects' current locations, a social networking app for creating viral campaigns, and video conferencing to conduct police interrogation remotely.
Use multiple-choice answers to solve the crime in the way that best suits your investigative methods while keeping control of the story.
The gripping narrative was written by Martha Reed for Electric Noir Studios to raise awareness of the challenges that online sex workers face on a daily basis, including online abuse, stigma from society, and serious threats to their personal safety, such as doxing and harassment.
The story challenges the victim-blaming culture by portraying women and sex workers as relatable, fallible, everyday people, emphasizing the right of women to live in safety regardless of their jobs or sexual preferences. The Dead Man's Phone series focuses on important social issues that are rarely addressed through the medium of video games.
Sim Cryer, a former British homicide detective, worked as a consultant to ensure the experience was as authentic as possible, as well as lending his acting talents to the final experience as a chief inspector to help you solve the mystery.
Victoria Barrett, an influencer and glamour model, also consulted on the real world of OnlyFans, with Haruka Kuroda hired as intimacy coordinator to advocate and liaise between the cast and the production team to ensure that consent, boundaries, and expectations were set and maintained throughout filming.
