The Ark: Another Life
Read their story, then live it
Free · In‑App Purchases
Twelve story worlds and 120 people across Japan. Read their stories first, then step into the life of one of the leads and spend your days with them in your own words.
Twelve story worlds. 120 people living across Japan. Each of them has a past, a job, quiet worries and things they have not said out loud yet.
Read first, then move in. Every world comes with its own story, a prelude and a life history for each person, and you can read them all before signing in. When you are ready, choose one of the leads and carry on their life from where the story leaves off.

SAY IT IN YOUR OWN WORDS
There is no list of options. Type whatever you want to say, and each person answers in character, from their own personality, position and mood in that moment. They remember what you told them, and the longer you spend together, the more those memories settle in.
MOVE BETWEEN PLACES
Everyone is wherever their day takes them. Drop by the kitchen, the consultation room or the rooftop to see who is there, or ask someone to come along somewhere else. Each person also has a room of their own; whether you can step inside depends on how close you are.
EVERY LIFE IS KEPT SEPARATELY
Lives, memories and relationships stay separate in each world. You can live a different life in every world and come back to any of them whenever you like.
EIGHT LANGUAGES
The interface and conversations are available in English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, French, German and Spanish.
PRICING
Reading is free. Conversations can use free replies, including replies earned by watching ads, and some conversation models use points. The monthly plan adds 500 bonus points each month, removes ads and lets you pin important moments so characters keep them in mind. The monthly plan renews automatically and can be cancelled at any time in your App Store account settings.
An internet connection is required.
