You wake up, feeling sluggish and heavy. Great,it is the start of the day. The same day that you have always been used to for the past couple of years of your boring life.
You slowly open your eyes to take a look around your room. The same setting that you have viewed whenever getting up for school.The same room you grew up in.
But you can tell through the atmosphere.
[[Something is not right.->First Night]]The light in the room flickered on and off sporadically.
Shelves to the sides with [[various bottles, boxes and junk]]. A [[large metal door]] that appears to be locked. It feels like a set for a TV show or a fiction book. Two [[windows]] are located in the small room.
But how? How did you end up here? You were for sure in your own room, going through your normal day.
First and foremost, You should probably look around.
You do feel pretty tired so maybe [[sleeping->Finding Phone]] might be the best.You look outside of the window.
It is pitch dark and the only thing you can see is the reflection of the room. Presumubaly it is too dark to see where you are at.
(if: $gothammer is true)[Maybe you can try using the [[hammer]]...]
(else:)[[There seems no use looking out the window right now.->First Night]]The metal door is large, something that would be in a storage unit of sorts. Maybe getting out of here might be if the door would budge.
Should you...
[[Try Banging on the Door and Yell for help]]
[[Try Pushing the Door]]
You look through the shelves to see couple of items. Empty paint buckets and weird bottles. The only useful thing that you see out in the open is [[a hammer]].
You probably shouldn't be looking in through the shelves because there is way too many.
You should not waste your time. Maybe it is best to stop looking.
Despite hitting the window with the Full force of the hammer, the glass does not even show a slight crack.
Tired, you decide to stop. [[Maybe try something else.->First Night]]As you head to the makeshift bed, made of two dirty pieces of sheets, you see near the desk next to bed.
It is a smartphone!
"Thank god", you sigh in relief. You can call the police and get out of this place. [[Or so you thought.->Taking a closer look]]You seem to find a fairly heavy hammer that you might aid you in escaping. Maybe try the window? [[For now go back.->First Night]]
(set: $gothammer to true)
(set: $PhoneBattery = 100)
When you unlock the phone, you realize that you are on the twitter app. As you wonder why the phone was on this app, you realize something big.
You can't go to the home screen. It shouldn't be like this though! This is not about the phone model! It is the exact same one that you own.
You can't call anyone, go to another app,share your location or anything.
This can't be. [[There has to be a way to make this work.]]After spending 20 minutes on trying to find a way to go to the home screen, you just can't.
(set: $PhoneBattery -= 3)
You noticed that the phone is losing power.
While phones can last a while, you shouldn't use your phone when you don't need to.
[[For Now maybe you should tweet something -> Intro tweet]]You accepted it.
You accepted the fate that you were to die here.
You decided that it is over.
Nausea takes over as you see double. Then triple. Nothing was true to you. You didn't have the energy to fight the pressure.
[[You slowly close your eyes, believing everything was fake around you.->No trust No fight No life ending]]You remember the times when Ash tried to invite you during lunch break to come sit with everyone.
But you always refused. No matter how many times though, Ash kept on talking to you about your day or games or anything.
You saw Ash as someone who was a bright person who was amazing with so many talents.Someone that people wanted to be around. Unlike yourself, who thought the world was a boring place with nothing to change and thought of yourself as someone who had no skills.
You just felt that You weren't supposed to belong there.
[[The phone buzzes]]
Ash is still sending you tweets right at this moment to encourage you.
You know. You knew. You knew but just kept running from it.
You knew that Ash was a very nice person. Someone who actually wanted to befriend you.
You think to yourself, that maybe, maybe if you spoke up, you two would have been very good friends.
Your phone is almost out of power. But you need to apologize. You need to thank this person who kept on searching for you.
[[Write last tweet]]You write using the small keyboard on the phone about your situation you are in.
That you are stuck in a room with no exit and you cannot go to the home screen.
You make sure that your tweet can be seen by people and ask to retweet this message.
(set: $PhoneBattery -= 2)
The phone is at 95 percent. Maybe you should [[turn off the phone for now]].Couple of hours have past as you wait to see if you have gotten any replies, but you believe you should wait till the phone gives a notification.
During the meantime you do some [[scrumaging around the room.]]
(set: $Lookedat2 to false)
(set: $Lookedat1 to false)
(set: $taketowel to false)(if: $Lookedat1 is true and $Lookedat2 is true and $taketowel is true and $Looktank is true)[
You can try to take a look around the shelves that you ended up neglecting as you were desperate to find an exit.
As you take a look around the area you see a water tank. Maybe look in to it. Having water is key here.
Some old towels were also near a desk you saw.
[[Look Through Shelves]]
[[Investigate Water Tank]]
[[Take Old towels]]
After looking through the room, the phone rings.
[[You've got a reply]]]

[[Look Through Shelves]]
[[Investigate Water Tank]]
[[Take Old towels]]]As you are screaming out of the top of your lungs for help and banging forcefully on the door hoping someone would open the door, your voice only echoes in the confined room and not a single voice replies to it.
You are alone here, and no one can hear you.
It seems you are really stuck in here. [[There is no point in trying.->First Night]]As you make contact with the cold steel, you put all your force in to pushing the door. Try as you might, the metal door doesn't move or budge no matter how much force you apply.
It seems you are really stuck in here. [[There is no point in trying.->First Night]](set:$Lookedat1 to true)
The first shelf contains many boxes and containers with many items.
Some things seem meaningless like the many bolts or [[old paint cans]].
Other items you see are [[a tube]] of sorts.
On the top shelf there was also a [[broom]] and a bunch of [[Electric supplies.]]
Want to head back?
[[Yes ->Look Through Shelves]] (set:$Lookedat2 to true)
Unlike the number of cardboard boxes and paint cans,
The second shelf contains number of [[tool boxes]] and containers.
[[Some cans]] were also located.
On the bottom there were many bags of [[gardening soil, sand and gravel.]]
Want to head back?
[[Yes ->Look Through Shelves]] There were so many empty buckets of paint. Most of them had in dry paint on them, and were just useless at this moment.
Maybe you can use it for a trash can?
Just [[look around->Look through the 1st Shelf]] again.You take a look at the shelf that you decided to hold off to after realizing you cannot escape from here.
Do you want to...
[[Look through the 1st Shelf]]
[[Look through the 2nd Shelf]]
[[Stop looking ->scrumaging around the room.]]
Gravel, Sand and gardening soil...what can you do with these? You can't start a farm because there are no seeds, and even so, crops don't grow that fast.
What can you do with this? A sturdier pillow?
For now [[go look for something else->Look through the 2nd Shelf]] There were tools for all sorts of tinkering, like pliers, monkey wrenches and ratchets.
Since the door seems too sturdy for bolts to pop off, they are only here for extra weight.
What to do with them?
[[Go look for something else. ->Look through the 2nd Shelf]] (set: $taketowel to true)
While dirty and damaged, at least the towel can be used for many things so maybe you should keep it on you.
It also might be a good alternative as another blanket.
[[Go see what else is here.->scrumaging around the room.]]
(set: $Looktank to true)
You open the water tank up, hoping for some fresh water.
But unfortunately, the water was dirty from the sewage, with dead bugs floating on the surface.
Only someone desperate would drink something this dirty.
You are still fine in terms of hydration so for now it may be wise to investigate [[other areas.->scrumaging around the room.]]Day 4.
(if: $PhoneBattery < 20)
[You wake up and you turn on your phone.
...
Your phone doesn't turn on.
It must have ran out of battery. Oh no. [[This is bad.]]
]
(else:)[
You barely ate for three days in total.
As you are on the verge of giving up and tweet your feelings, you receive numerous messages.
"You can still do this! Please do not give up!"
"People are searching all over for you, don't give up just yet."
"Don't worry. I am positive you will be saved."
[[....]]
] These tweets... These words... [[Do you believe these words?]]Double-click this passage to edit it.Are you certain that these words are pure enough that the people are caring for your safety or just some fluke?
Are you certain that these words is nothing more than to make those who said them look good?
Are you certain that these words are not from people who is interested and is having fun with your situation?
Are you certain that they don't view this like some sort of enterntainment?
[[...]][[They aren't lying, they believe in me ->Are You Sure?(PorN)]]
[[No, their words are nothing but a means of appearing good -> Negative Mind]]Day 5:
You do not move from your bed. Not because you can't, but you choose to do so.
You see many tweets calling for you to get your status, but you gave up. You stop looking at your phone.
[[You stare blankly accross the room.]]
Are you sure with this decision?
[[Yes->No one can save me]]
[[No -> Important choice]] "What is this joke? I know you want attention so just stop with this crap"
"Yes yes you are trapped in your closet how funny XD"
"Are you alright???? You should call the cops then!"
...
From many people not taking your situation seriously to people who are worried but are suggesting options you cannot attempt, it frustrates you greatly.
They don't know this damn situation you are in! While it seems unpleasant you should still take a look at what people are saying.
[[Scroll Down]]As more joke comments flood your screen, you see one comment that says the following:
"Have you tried any short cuts? Maybe you can acces some things. Maybe you can turn on your camera by double clicking the power button? At least that is how my phone works"
(set: $cameratip to true)
Nice. [[Maybe you can try out this command?->Camera first day]]
You try out the tip that you saw on the tweet.
Turns out the shortcut for the camera works!
You take couple of pictures of the room and send them through twitter.
(set: $PhoneBattery -= 3)
Your phone is at 92 percent after this work. Maybe you should go to [[sleep -> Sleep day 1]] while you wait for replies. You must be tired from the situation you are in.
You slowly close your eyes as you lay down on the hard floor of the makeshift bed.
You hope that tommorow, you can get closer to getting out of here.
[[Sleep->Wake up Day 2]]Even though the people are trying to look good by giving out fake words, you are going to trust them?
[[Yes, I'll do anything to live-> Are You Sure?(Trust People?)]]
[[No, Don't Trust them -> Are You Sure?(Don't Trust People?)]]You grab the hammer that you first tried to break the window with.
You are full of rage, with people thinking that you are some entertainment object.
[[Swing at Window]]Like the first time you tried, the window doesn't budge.
[[But you keep trying.]]After many hits, The bottom corner of the window shows a crack. It seemed impossible at first, but you should of just done this from the start.
Yeah. You didn't need anyone's words of wisdom. You only need to listen to yourself.
[[Hit the broken corner]]
The small crack begins to spread.
Blood and sweat roll down the handle.
You are tired. But You can't give up.
You know you are better.
[[Take a swing]]The swing had the most force that you have put to it.
Glass shatters in all direction, some slashing some your skin off.
The exit is there.
[[Get out.]]Trasitions to the [[Don't trust anyone]] ending.
After you got out of the room and you see sunlight, you fainted.
Luckily, someone found you and called the ambulance. You are now in the hospital getting your wounds cleaned up and getting nuterients.
You keep telling everyone who ever asks you about your story that you have gotten out of the room and it was all thanks to everyone's help.
[[But you knew....]][[You were the only one who you can trust. ]]
Someone who goes to the same school knows now.
Rumors will probably spread about you.
You feel as if a secret that you kept holding off for a long time is now loose.
But, you think to yourself that it shouldn't matter. Because you on the verge of death.
[[You shut your eyes.]]While it was a situation that you avoided for a while, when it comes to living you are going to take every chance.
You decide to take a photo of yourself, giving out your personal information from age and address.
Even though you don't believe these fake words that everyone is giving out, you don't care. You want to live.
Enter.
As couple of minutes pass by you get a [[reply -> Reply From Ash]].
Are you Sure?
[[Yes->Ash]]
[[No ->I want to live]] Are you Sure?
[[Yes-> I don't need anyone's help]]
[[No ->I want to live]] (set:$BelieveinWords to true)
Of course! You are going to be fine! Everyone is saying so!
You look at your phone, trusting every word they say. Who cares about your own thoughts? You wouldn't have a stable mind stuck here for four days, so you should [[listen to them!]]You just can't trust them. You don't feel any depth from the words that they give to you [[... -> Important choice]] You know. You know that these messages do not have any meaning.
You think back to this situation...You tell yourself...
(if: $A is true and $B is true and $Waterfilter is true)[
[[I want to live]]
[[I feel my death]]]
(else:)[[I feel my death->No one can save me]]You realize day by day you are losing focus and as you are starving to death, .
You stare at the ceiling, with various thoughts and started to question how you ended up here.
Was it a coinceidence? No. Why?
You know why, as you recall your [[old memories(star)]] of yourself.As you went to school everyday, you always sat alone in the classroom dilegently taking notes about the subject.
Once class was over, you hear the chatter of your classmates talking about a show they watched or the news of their favorite actor.
You always thought how you did not belong at school in a group full of people like that. Even though you are paying attention in class and can get good grades, you felt that someone like you does not belong in a place were people just talk about random boring topics.
You just felt that you did not need to help,love or interact with anyone.
[[But then you realize...]][[Thank you for doing so much to try to come find]]You wake up but can't move.
Your fingers are barely moving.
You see that Ash has still been sending you tweets.
It shows how Ash has been declining events just to search for you.
They frequently check up on you to make sure that you are alive.
Ash goes around all sorts of storage rooms and asks you to respond if you here them call for your name.
[[...->Regreting Your mistakes (True Ending Path)]]Thank you for doing so much to try to come find
[[Someone like me. ]]Thank you for doing so much to try to come find
Someone like me.
Thank You.
[[Send]][[........]]The phone shutoff.
You don't know whether your message was sent to Ash.
If it reached them, you atleast were able to thank them.
If it didn't, there was nothing else waiting for you.
Your vision is blurry...
You feel that it may be it for your [[life...]]"I am going to search around near my area for any storehouses!"
"Doesn't this building look similar to the wall on the picture? Maybe they are near here somewhere."
"There is a group who formed to go out and find where the suspect might be at...I'll also give a close call while walking home."
"Let's do this everyone! We need to save them!"
[[...->Go to Day 6 Evening]].....
....!!!
Someone is calling your name...[[You wonder if this is the after life]].You wake up, feeling tired and weak. Great,it is the start of the day. The same day that you have gone through, of looking over tweets, trying to survive and live. This time your phone is dead though.
You slowly open your eyes to take a look around the room. The same setting that you have viewed for the past week. With the flickering light and your make shift water filter.
But you can tell through the atmosphere.
[[Something is not right.->Hospital]]You...are alive?
How? You thought you died after your last tweet thanking Ash.
Your parents were sitting next to you, breaking in to tears of joy that their child is back to them.
You ask: [["What happened?"]]You learned that your disappearance caused a huge turmoil around the city.
Apparently, from the various tweets of speculations of where you were located and the information you shared helped Ash to figure out where you were trapped in.
No one knows the whereabouts of the culprit, as not even a trace of the culprit has been found.
But you do think that this was not a coinceidence and that you were chosen due to your views of the world.
But you did learn the joy of being alive and that there are people who care for you.
Your parents tell you that they need to go see the doctor to see how long you will need to be in the hospital.
As they were leaving, you stop them for a moment and [[tell them this]].[[Thank You for everything.]]You are walking outside in a park. You were released three days ago from the hospital.
It feels good to be walking around in the open, without being trapped in a small room, even if you are not claustrophobic.
Today you are going to see Ash and thank them.
You asked them if there was any way of thanking them for saving your life, but all they asked was for you to hang out with them to go see a new movie.
[[You walk thinking to yourself.]]You are walking outside in a park. You were released three days ago from the hospital.

You asked them if there was any way of thanking them for saving your life, but all they asked was for you to hang out with them to go see a new movie.
You walk thinking to youself.
While you can't change the past, and it will be a long time to show your gratitude for the people that saved you, this situation made you think more about others and how truly you were blind to people's care and love.
So this time, [[you are going to change]]. So you can live to be someone who will help others.
[[Someone like all the people who helped you escape your prison of death.]]You take a look at the tube that is wrapped around like a snake curling itself in to a pile.
The tube is made out of rubber, and could possibly be used for something.
But it seems that those are the only qualities.
Just [[look around->Look through the 1st Shelf]] again.Try as you might, you could not turn on your phone.
Now you can do nothing, but wait for help.
You slowly lower the phone.
[[And you try to survive till help comes...->PhoneDead]]14 days later, the tweets managed to find were you were trapped.
...But...
They found you dead. Dehydration, fatigue, starvation, no one knows for sure how yoyu died.
But they know. Anyone would know.
[[It was just too late.]]Phone Dead Ending:
You as the player used your phone too much in this route.
Keep in mind, even if the phone is in sleep mode, it looses some power. Not much, but that can be enough to cost you from having a phone die on you.
*Tip: Once you get useful information, maybe stop using your phone. Only use your phone when you can do ABSOLUTELY nothing.What are you going to do with a broom of all things?
Clean this place? Only do that when you are bored to death.
Just [[look around->Look through the 1st Shelf]] again.Bunch and bunch of boxes full of electric aplliances are in the box.
What can you do with all these things? Tinkering around with them might end you up somewhere, but you don't know what exactly every item does. Maybe it is not the time.
Just [[look around->Look through the 1st Shelf]] again.You slowly open your eyes as the sunlight enters your room, forcing you to let out a yawn.
But something is big that you could do now.
You can take a picture of the view outside the window!
It was too dark last night to even understand where you were even at. This might lead for people understanding where you are located and come find you.
[[Take a look outside.]]...No.
The view! The view that you see is just another wall! "Shoot!" You think to yourself.
You try to go look from [[all directions]], attempting to find something that would get people to know where you are located.No matter the direction, the view was obscured that it was nearly impossible to tell how the buildings looked around you.
You still upload couple of pictures that you took, just so people can get the information that you are seeing.
Couple of minutes pass and you see you got [[some replies.]]"Man, I can't tell anything from that is that it looks like a building? I am not too sure..."
"Hmm, this seems difficult to understand where you are. Can you use your map to show us how the area around you looks like?"
It seems that everyone replying cannot tell what is going on.
As you sigh after looking over at the responses, you notice that you still had notifications.
[[You've got a DM.]]The DM reads,
"Hello.
Many people have been calling the police about this situation. Now this cannot be taken lightly. If this is a prank, you are going to face certain consequences. If you are seriously trapped, you need to post all your personal information to have people even help you."
How can this person tell you this without being in your situation?
[[It irritates you greatly.]]You are determined to get out of here more than ever.

]You drink the water, and it tastes funny. You soon collapse to the ground, not having the strength to get up.
[[No...You've done it....]]Game Over.
You ended up drinking polluted water and your body couldn't handle the side effects and you died.
*Tip: Like the first tweet on Day 2 told you, many people are giving you help. Maybe look through twitter again on Day 2?"You can survive!"
[[Ofcourse! I can survive!]]Day 7 was the day they came to rescue you.
But.....
[[You already had lost your mind.]]Positive Mind-Ending:
By letting yourself listen to everyone's words and believing all of them to be truthful, you lost yourself and any sense of direction other than those from others. You let people tell you to do things without anything stopping you.
You are broken, and while you got out and are saved, you are now in a mental hospital. Because all you do is smile as you look at the phone, dead and without power.
*Tip: Can you trust what people say 100 percent of the time? You need to have a gut feeling sometimes that you know that those words are not true.Are you Sure?

]Escapist Ending(Nuteral):
You escaped by doubting everyone and only trusting yourself.
While you got out, you still are the same person who you've been, not learning a lesson due to believing you got out only because of yourself.
*Tip: Maybe you should trust some people if you are on the verge of death?It was yourself that was the cause of this mindset.
Not anyone else.
[[But you.]]You were only making excuses to justify that you were not wrong for not being able to fit in and that was how your selfish pride grew.
You being stuck here was probably meant to happen.
To tell the truth of the person you actually you are.
Even if this was meant to be, [[you still....]]
Want to live...
Tears roll down your eyes as you think to yourself this is how your life ends.
You end up crying yourself to sleep, as you breakdown on the cold floor of your makeshift bed[[...->Day 5]]True Ending
Congratulations. You learned your mistakes and now are determined to live to repay the gratitude of the people who showed care for you, even if you did not think that originally.
---
The true ending for this game really describes how I thought of life when I was very depressed in high school until one of my best friends, who I kept refusing to hang out or join his friends in the sophomore year.
I wanted everyone who played this game who related to the protagonist and/or had a similar experience as me to know that things do get better, once you decide to lower your guard and start accepting that people are there for you.
So if you are feeling alone, or have trust issues. There are people who care for you, even if you do not see it yourself. Never forget that.
Day 6
You touch your body to notice how thin you gotten.
Wow, you came all this way without food.
You can't stop noticing your phone ringing with tweets.
[[But you don't move.]][[Day 7...]][[Day 8...]][[9...]][[...->10]]On Day 11 the police find you.
[[Unfortunately, they found a corpse.]]
No trust No fight No life ending. (Bad Ending)
In this ending you gave up living, trusting anyone, and not fighting for your life. With that mindset, it was a matter of time that you died.
*Tip:Don't ever give up on living. If you do, that's curtain
