Cold Calling - Chapter 1 Demo
A downloadable game for Windows and Android
November, 1962: The height of the Cold War. Mere weeks after the Cuban Missile Crisis, a new international entanglement is about to go nuclear. As the new White House switchboard operator, it’s your job to make sure long-distance negotiations don’t go south. Get ready to phone it in.
In Cold Calling, you take control of a telephone switchboard and are tasked with routing diplomatic calls between the United States and the Soviet Union, meeting the game’s cast of caricatured world leaders along the way. Using loose wires on the switchboard and a collection of wacky gadgets, you will have to juggle oncoming waves of calls and guide them safely from caller to recipient. The fast-paced puzzle gameplay is punctuated with hilarious exchanges between characters in a globetrotting adventure where your choices affect the outcome of the story.

Man, I remember like it was yesterday when I saw this game for the first time in 2019. I thought it was a great puzzle-type game, even more so for being able to play smoothly on my phone at the time. I believe the project is no longer active, which is definitely a shame. Still, I hope to be able to play some future project from the game's devs if given the opportunity. Thanks to you guys for this memory you left me, I will cherish this experience forever
Apologies for the radio silence for so long! We've been working on CC when we can, and intend to see it through to an actual release. We all work full-time so progress can be stop and go at times. Thank you for the kind words!
Oh! Thank God, I'm very relieved now to know that everything is still moving forward. Thanks for the quick response most of all, I can't wait to play your future release! :D
I waited a long time for this. I am happy that the project is still active!
The setting & humor are spot-on and the secret element is intriguing, really good work so far. :)
