Incoming Call is a sci-fi horror game where the player(s) roleplay and engage with each other in real-world phone calls, or in solo play with the ramblings of an audio log.
The main player takes on the role of the colonist, a solitary astronaut investigating a barren space rock for science, with a constantly growing insanity score that puts them on a one-way trajectory to emotional collapse. This player makes phone calls or leaves recorded messages for their bond and counsellor, who can also be players.
Player(s) construct the story as they play, with only a mobile phone and a lonely six-sided die to hold their hand. Each game will be a unique, tragic, and surreal experience taking on themes of isolation, family and exploration.
You can use normal phone calls, but also other methods like skype or discord if you prefer. For recording, most phones come with a recording app pre-installed, (on iphone use "voice memos," and on android "audio recorder,"), but if you don't have a smart phone there are lots of devices you can use to record yourself.
