PHIA: You put them to work either in lumber mills or like mining for gold. PHIA: But you are trying to gain as many gems and coins as you possibly can, and to do that, you're enslaving other bunnies.
You're the bunny king on this island and you hop around the island, popping bubbles and finding ghosts that'll help you out. She desperately wants help finding this game. And this is what Kris wants my help with. And there's this one flash game that Kris remembers playing that she says was the best game that they played. It was always like shoot a celebrity or play pinball. Like the cheap, the dumb, cheap games that were free. KRIS: She had this old PC, and we would just spend just the entire day just playing Flash games.
And then, one of those years, during one of those summers, they discovered computer games. PHIA: So this would happen every summer, like when Kris was nine and Kris was 10 and 11. We used to play inside the house like hide and seek and stuff like that. And then she like lived in this huge, like, it's the biggest house I was ever inside of. KRIS: Who lived like, across the street from me, and I would just climb over my fence, and just go into her yard. Specifically these summers she spent in her childhood with her best friend, this girl she was really really close with named Kaça. PHIA: And so she she started doing the thing you do when you’re lonely- she started reminiscing about times she was really happy. And there are these stretches, like days go by where she doesn’t have a conversation with anyone at all. PHIA: So she's living alone in this big city. I live alone, and I'm just like removed from all my friends and family. KRIS: And I've kind of been lonely these few months, since I'm not from Belgrade.
PHIA: And last year she graduated high school, and she moved to Belgrade to start college. PHIA: Her name is Kris, she's 20 years old, and she lives in Serbia. And she was writing because she’d lost something on the internet and she really wanted help finding it. So three months ago, I got an email from one of our listeners. PJ: We are in the studio with Phia Bennin. ALEX GOLDMAN: From Gimlet, this is Reply All.
