Linda Birkenstock, the App - featuring Apartmental Plant Assassin app for iPhone and iPad

APPLICATION DESCRIPTION

In real life, Linda Birkenstock is an idea person and copywriter. This is the app version of Linda, the person. She likes to look ahead, so this app was made even before the technology to make an app version of a real human existed. Given that, full “Linda” functionality was not possible. There were some tough tradeoffs. At the app level, all she’s left with are her abilities to make coffee, hang around the apartment and her two most basic skills: to conduct electricity and kill plants. These abilities have been combined in the game Apartmental Plant Assassin.


HOW TO PLAY

Scuff Linda’s feet to build up static charge. Then head for some unlucky foliage. Watch out for aggressive dust bunnies that wipe out your charge, and be sure to build up enough or zapping will backfire in leafy revenge. Find extra charge with the bearskin rug, leaky microwave, and defective space heater, or put faulty wiring to good use with a finger in the electrical outlet and more.


The app also contains some of Linda’s creative work and can be used to contact her if you want to upgrade.


WHY UPGRADE

Linda Pro is the real-life version of Linda. This version can still conduct electricity or kill plants, but she can also do branding campaigns, concept using new tech or old tech in new ways and offer fresh thinking. She’s basically an app for the real world.
