In Phone Behind Bars, you're trapped behind bars, your life reduced to the confines of a prison cell. Your only connection to the outside world is a mobile phone, which has a single contact saved: your wife. The game unfolds through a series of text messages exchanged between you and various characters, as you strive to prove your innocence. As you dig deeper into the mystery, you'll find that the favors you ask of others come with heavy, often morally questionable costs. The truth is elusive, and every decision you make could either bring you closer to freedom or entrench you deeper in the web of lies and corruption.
Will you take extreme measures to secure your release, or will you hold onto your principles at any cost? Phone Behind Bars challenges your morality and ingenuity in a race against time, with your freedom—and your conscience—hanging in the balance.
