Disconnected
Every choice is a lifeline.
About the Game
"Disconnected" is a survival-horror narrative game that places you in the high-stakes role of a 911 dispatcher. Late one night, you receive a panicked call from a woman who wakes up in a bathtub filled with ice, trapped in a crumbling house with no memory of how she got there. As the call unfolds, you realize the horrors she faces go far deeper than just escaping the house.
Through branching dialogue and tense decision-making, you’ll guide her every move. Will you convince her to find safety or allow her curiosity to unravel the truth behind her terrifying predicament? Each choice you make could lead to her survival… or her demise.
Features
- Immersive Storytelling: Experience the intensity of life-and-death decisions through chilling dialogue and realistic sound design.
- Branching Paths: Multiple endings, from tragic dead ends to a satisfying conclusion, based on your choices.
- Atmospheric Sound Design: A haunting auditory experience that immerses you in the woman’s surroundings, even when you can’t see them.
- Themes of Morality and Consequences: Explore the psychological weight of responsibility and how communication shapes outcomes.
Gameplay
You’ll play as the dispatcher, guiding the woman as she navigates the horrors of her environment. With only her voice and the faint sounds in the background to rely on, you’ll need to decide how to direct her—should she search for clues, leave immediately, or push deeper into the mystery?
Each decision you make could lead her closer to freedom or into deadly danger. Are you ready to bear the weight of her survival?

Great game! The writing was wonderful and kept me wanting, to know more. The choice of finding the ringing phone or escaping the building was such a difficult one and really ramped up the tension..
Chloe's fear really came across well, with some fantastic voice acting.
Another amazing creation, well done!
Fantastic game with excellent writing. The dialogue between Chloe and the 911 dispatcher is tense and drew me right in to the story. I really enjoyed the premise and uncovering what had happened through the different choices.
The voice acting was on point and it was a welcome addition to the game. Sound effects and ambience enhanced the immersion. Well done for making it in a week as well! That's incredible!
I had a great time playing this! Thanks for making it :)
