What's New
Act Two begins! Chapter 7 included in this update for FREE as a thank you to our fans!
We're making some changes to how we produce each chapter in order to speed up our release schedule—for details, see the message that appears when you launch the app.
Synopsis of Chapter 7: The Nonnars and their counterparts struggle in their own ways with the "new normal," and we witness the chance meeting that ultimately snowballed into Hank's involvement with Via.
Also, the app isn't such a space hog anymore! We've made chapters individually downloadable, and optimized assets for iPhone and iPad so you don't have to use up any more room on your device than you need to.
