The idea behind the game

Before smartphones, we texted on 12 number keys. Press 2 once for a, twice for b, three times for c. A text held about 80 bytes and every message cost credit, so we wrote "c u l8r".

Flip Phone Texting brings that keypad back. Type the mission text before your time runs out. The Korean version uses the Cheonjiin keypad, where vowels are built from three strokes.
