disappointing. there were so many bugs and glitches and I really wanted to enjoy this, but i've uninstalled because its so stressful. i've given a 3 star rating because i can see that a lot of hard work went into this and the idea is definitely there but it was not executed well. I'm happy to give more detail on the things that were going wrong in an email or something if need be (there's a LOT of glitches)

It's got a pretty interesting storyline, there were glitches here and there near the ending where the messages were more dominant, however, I really did enjoy reading this (even though my choices wrecked a whole friendship group and potentially killed a person) and really taught me to actually think about consequences. There were funny and quite interesting moments, and tense and worrying moments. I could sense the atmosphere and realised I never ever want this to happen to me and my friends.

I haven't got to the end yet, but I'll add a spoiler warning anyway. SPOILERS: I dont know if this is done purposefully to progress the storyline but I picked Anetta to come to Kyle's party with me, but the next thing I know, Kalil is coming instead? I don't know if that's a glitch or not. The story is alright. There's a glitch where the screen will fill up with messages like "kalil is typing..." instead of actual messages whenever you exit the groupchat mid being spammed with messages too.

On the Surface is a real-time interactive story exploring the tensions and crunch moments of a group of teenage friends. The choices you make will decide the future of their friendship.

Meet a group of five friends who, like all of us, each have a public and a private side. But when the pressure is on, can they keep up the divide between the person they show the world and the person they really are? What happens when you find out things that make you question if you really know them?

Introducing:
Hema - outgoing athlete, energetic and optimistic
Kalil - out-cast musician with an attitude
Anetta - super-intelligent, sometimes volatile
Jessie - exchange student, brings the humour
Tanya - may not be as perfect as she seems

And a number of unique supporting characters.

Interact through an intuitive messaging app, receiving messages from characters both individually and in group chats as they go through their day. The story unfolds in real time over the course of a week which will change your friendship forever.

Your choices and responses will determine what happens in a dramatic and surprising storyline, as you uncover each character’s story and connect over secrets and shared experiences.

A project of The Challenge in partnership with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.

Developed by Digital Liberties and Cohere Partners.
