The Cell Phone is one of the most useful devices in the city. With it, you can keep up to date on the latest debates brewing in LifeInvader, text and call with friends, and play some games to pass the time.

Phone Logic
  • Use "Y" to pull out the phone and use "ESC" to get out of the phone
  • Use "Backspace" to exit apps on the phone or the arrow in the top left of the phone screen
  • Phones can be purchased at Digital Den, Mega Mall, Willie's Supermarket, and SOMETIMES the Pawn Shop
  • You may not use LifeInvader to advertise the sale of illegal items
  • You may not share your phone number on LifeInvader
  • Your phone number is found in the settings app
  • Your Account Number in the Fleeca app is used to receive money
  • You must apply the dashes in the phone number when calling/messaging someone

NOTE: Did you know that your phone can break if you took it for a swim?

Tetris: Tetris has very simple rules: you can only move the pieces in specific ways; your game is over if your pieces reach the top of the screen; and you can only remove pieces from the screen by filling all the blank spaces in a line.

Snake: There are only two rules you must follow when playing: don't hit a wall and don't bite your tail. Crashing into a wall or your tail will end the game immediately. Your high score is calculated based on the number of squares you added to the snake. You win the game when there is no more room for your snake to grow.

Flappy Bird: The faster you tap, the higher you go. Each tap represents a wing flap and higher flight. Once you stop, you drop towards the ground.
