Lifeline 2 Updated With New Engine/Improved Apple Watch Integration June 5, 2025

If you own an Apple Watch and an iPhone I want you to close this browser window right now, open the App Store and immediately purchase a game called Lifeline. It is a wonderful combination of a choose your own adventure game and an alternate reality game, where you try to help someone through a supernatural situation.

The thing I appreciated most of all about the games was its seamless progress integration between my Watch and my iPhone. So if I had to wait for an event to transpire, my Watch could notify me of the event, and present me the chance to respond to it on the spot, as opposed to having to bring up my phone every time I wanted to respond. However, I later discovered this integration was not completely seamless on all the sequel and spin-off games of the Lifeline franchise! At the time of my ownership of an Apple Watch, only the original Lifeline had this functionality, but support for it was later added for Lifeline: Silent Night.

Late yesterday, the App Store released an update for Lifeline 2, where they announced they have ported the game to their improved engine, bringing with it the improved integration features that made the first game so incredible.

Lifeline 2 is out now for iOS and Apple Watch.
