In 2025, UK’s ISDN and PSTN networks will be switched off permanently and many legacy technologies will no longer work.
The aim of the game is to find and select as many
Starting from the top floor, click on only the objects that you believe will be impacted by the PSTN
The game concludes when you hit the ‘Submit’ button at the bottom of the office block, or when the timer reaches 2025, whichever occurs first.
You will then be presented with your results, and have the chance to find out more detail about the objects that you correctly identified, and those that you missed.
Click all the objects on each floor that you think will be affected by the PSTN Switch-off. On each selection, the timer stops and an explainer pop-up appears. Click continue to restart the timer.
And when you have found them all scroll down to the next floor.
