999 is the official emergency number for the United Kingdom, but calls are also accepted on the European Union emergency number, 112. All calls are answered by 999 operators, and are always free. [2] Approximately 35 million 999/112 calls are made in the UK each year, with 74% from mobiles and 26% from landlines in 2022. [3]
In the interest of international compatibility, calls to foreign emergency numbers (112, 911, 999, 000 etc.), will be automatically diverted to 111. [28] On average, 48% of calls to 111 are non-genuine, despite this police say they do not want to discourage people from call 111 if they are in genuine need of emergency services. [29]

This was confirmed as untrue by several British police forces who publicly cited the dangers of making such calls.
999 features nine main characters, who are forced to participate in the Nonary Game by an unknown person code-named Zero. [2] For the majority of the game, the characters adopt code names to protect their identities due to the stakes of the Nonary Game—most of their names are ultimately revealed over the course of the game, and for several their true identities are important to the plot.
