About BackfireWall
BackfireWall is a first-person tragicomic adventure set inside a smartphone. You play as the update assistant and decide whether to counter the update and save the chatty operating system OS9 from deletion. As you explore the phone, you meet apps with opinions about their boss, the update and the godlike user.
Explore the phone
Visit areas including RAM, where you review terminal errors; the Speakers’ exclusive nightclub; and the Wi-Fi bureaucracy. Solve puzzles and use special cheat-codes to manipulate the environment. You can hunt down or create bugs, trim binary trees, master music-controlled platforms, collect errors and delete data.
Meet the apps
Talk with quirky software characters, including the sassy Photos, the insecure Social Media F and the neglected Health. They have distinct side stories, and you can collect scattered emails to uncover a parallel story about the mysterious phone User.
Humor and puzzles
The game combines puzzles with meta, satirical humor and fourth-wall breaks.
