About:

What would you do if you got a text from someone you didn't know, who said they needed your help? Would you trust them? Subtext is an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) that plays out in real time through real communications (text messages, phone calls, emails, etc.) that you receive from characters. You'll need to solve puzzles, break into systems, and use social engineering to unravel the story of a mysterious research facility and a person who found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.
