From the department

Built like a case file, not an app.

§1

Voicemails that speak

Every recovered message plays out loud — each contact with their own voice.

§2

A rank you earn

Grades become points. Points become rank. TRAINEE to CHIEF INSPECTOR — promotions are rare and remembered.

§3

Four endings per case

Every case files S, A, B and F outcomes. Earned endings stay on file; sealed ones dare you to reopen.

§4

Text them back

Type anything to the people in the phone. They answer in their own voice, and never give the case away.

§5

Signed in your own hand

You take the oath and sign it. Your signature lives on your service record.

§6

Case 1 is on the house

Case 1 is free from start to finish. The case file or the Retainer opens every other case, and a case you close stays on your desk. No case needs an analysis to be solved.

Frequently asked

Questions at the front desk.

Q1

What is LAST SEEN?

LAST SEEN is a found-phone detective mystery game by Novarch LLC. The department puts a recovered phone on your desk, and you solve the case from what it holds.

Q2

How does a case play?

You read the phone's messages, photos, notes, mail, and voicemails. You text the contacts back, and they answer in their own words. You pin evidence to a case board with red string. A breakthrough is 2 facts that can't both be true. Then you name the suspect, back it with evidence, and get a grade from S to F. Each case has 4 endings.

Q3

Is LAST SEEN free, and what can I buy?

LAST SEEN is free to download. From version 2.8, case 1 is free from start to finish, and The Whole Case File, a one-time purchase, or the Detective's Retainer, a subscription, opens every other case. While it runs, the Retainer also makes lab analyses unlimited. In the US, the Retainer costs $3.99 a week, $6.99 a month, or $39.99 a year. Analysis credit packs are optional: no case needs an analysis to be solved. Players who began before 2.8 keep every case they already had.

Q4

Which devices does LAST SEEN run on?

LAST SEEN runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. You download it from the App Store.

Q5

Which languages does LAST SEEN support?

LAST SEEN is available in English, German, French, and Spanish (Spain).

Q6

Do I need an account? Are there ads?

You don't need an account, and you never sign in. LAST SEEN has no ads and no tracking. Your cases, grades, and progress stay on your device. When you text a contact, the server reads your message to pick the reply and keeps no copy.

Q7

How many cases are there, and how often do new ones come?

LAST SEEN has 46 case files. New phones reach your desk every week. Close 2 cases, and the department sends the next 2.
