You play ION, a young exploration unit on a mission to secure natural resources. When you crash-land on an alien planet your ship is almost completely destroyed. Not only do you have to survive in a strange new world full of dangers, but to have even a hope of escape you must find a way to contact your home planet for help. With only your ship’s A.I. for company, you set out to explore your new home. On your journey you encounter ANI, a small, stranded service unit who identifies as female. ANI is the first to admit she’s a bit mad, but she is also a valuable resource, and it soon becomes clear that there will be no escape without her. And so, the two of you begin a journey that neither of you is prepared for, on a planet where even the laws of nature seem not to apply. A journey in which ION and ANI must face the strangest of all possible challenges if they are to have any hope of living to tell their own story.

Critic Reviews
Handsome Phantom
By Josh ThompsonLife should be more self-explanatory.
SomHráč.sk
By Daniel PaličkaPhoning Home is a good game with pleasant music, nice graphics and ideal difficulty. At least for the first few hours. Unfortunately, due to various mistakes, it´s only a forgettable experience.
GameGrin
By Nathan SaretzkyThe smooth textured environments do not make up for the game play issues and infuriating dialogue.
Sirus Gaming
By Jan Christian DuarteIf I have to recommend this game, I would recommend it to someone who wants long adventures with a mix of survivability in a more relaxing way.
PushStartPlay
By John LittleAn interesting title that combines light resource collecting and exploration, with a mysterious story. More linear than it initially seems, but this works in the game's favour. Clunky design and some glitches hamper the experience, however.
