Table of Contents
This seemingly simple object is the key to a surprisingly deep gameplay system, allowing you to order essential supplies, receive gameplay hints, uncover cryptic lore, and even unlock several of the game’s most secret achievements.
Many of these numbers can be discovered organically as you play, but some can be used before you ever find them in-game, giving knowledgeable players a significant advantage. This guide will provide a complete, up-to-the-minute list of every known phone number in No, I’m not a Human. We’ll detail who you’ll be calling, what services or conversations they provide, and a step-by-step walkthrough on how to unlock the secret achievements tied to this mysterious system.
How the Telephone System Works
Before you start dialing, it’s important to understand the basics of the phone system. The telephone is located on the small cabinet in the hallway near your front door and becomes usable after the first couple of days in your playthrough.
Discovering Numbers
Most of the game’s phone numbers are designed to be discovered through careful observation as you progress through the story. You can find them by:
- Listening closely to radio broadcasts.
- Watching all the programs and advertisements on your television.
- Paying attention to details in dialogues with your visitors.
Dialing Early for an Advantage
A crucial tip for advanced players is that some of these numbers can be dialed as soon as the phone becomes active, even if you haven’t “officially” learned of them in your current playthrough. By using the numbers in this guide, you can gain early access to important services and unlock achievements much faster than you would otherwise.
The Complete Phone Number List
Here is the full list of all currently known phone numbers and what they do.
ForRest Delivery Service – 399 569
This is arguably the most important and useful phone number in the entire game. This number connects you to “ForRest,” a remote delivery service that allows you to order vital supplies directly to your home. This is your primary method for acquiring more kombucha (the item used to save your game) and cat food (which is required for the “Your fluffy master” achievement).
- The Delivery Delay: Be warned, this is not an instant service. The guide confirms that deliveries are made the day after tomorrow, meaning there is a two-day wait from when you place your order to when it arrives. You must plan your orders well in advance.
- Is the Number Random? While it was initially believed by the community that this number was randomized for each playthrough, recent discoveries suggest that 399 569 is a static number that works in all games. However, it is still a good practice to watch the TV advertisement for ForRest in your bedroom to unlock the service “officially” and confirm the number for your playthrough.
- Unlocking Items: If you call and do not see kombucha or other key items on the list, it means you need to progress further in the main story for them to become available for purchase.
- Achievement – “You have a delivery!”: This achievement is very simple. Just call the ForRest number and order any item. The achievement will unlock when you place the order, not when it arrives.
Guest Control Service (GCS) – 000 451
This number connects you to what appears to be an official government agency or task force responsible for dealing with the Guest phenomenon.
- Function: The GCS can provide you with small, helpful tips for detecting Guests. This is a fantastic in-game hint system for new players who are still learning the six signs and are struggling to tell friend from foe.
- Secret Achievement: This number is tied to a secret achievement. To unlock it, you must call the GCS on the very first day that the telephone becomes usable in your playthrough. Calling on any subsequent day will still give you hints, but you will miss your one chance to get the achievement for that run.
The Psychics – 777 460
This number is for players who want to dive deeper into the strange, metaphysical lore of the game’s world.
- Function: Calling this number connects you with a group of psychics. They provide interesting and cryptic dialogues that help to build the game’s oppressive atmosphere. The guide notes that their conversation can sometimes break the fourth wall, suggesting they may have a deeper awareness of the player’s situation than other characters.
- Secret Achievement: This is another number tied to a secret achievement. To unlock it, you simply need to stay on the line and listen to the entire conversation with the psychics until it concludes.
The Lonely Neighbor – 477 067
This number provides no gameplay advantage or items but is a fantastic tool for immersion.
- Function: Calling this number connects you with one of your presumably human neighbors. You can have simple, mundane conversations with them. In a game filled with paranoia and dread, these small moments of normal human interaction can be a welcome, if temporary, relief, helping to maintain the game’s tense atmosphere.
- Achievement: There is no achievement tied to this number, so feel free to call it whenever you like.
By using the telephone not just as a tool for survival but as a window into the wider world, you can unlock the deepest secrets and achievements that No, I’m not a Human has to offer.
