Put a timer in your game and they'll try to beat it ;) The puzzles are really interesting. You can definitely feel the Portal inspiration, but the time management really adds something new.
Very nice game to play. A good puzzle game similar to Portal. What sets it apart is the fact you can play with time instead of portals. The puzzles are not too easy but not too difficult either. My current time played it a good indication if you want to fully complete the game. As of right now it features 20 different levels, each a little more challenging than the last.
These are exactly the kind of games that I’m looking for. A first person puzzle game with clever puzzles with many ah-ha moments. I had major fun playing this game. The game is very well executed, highly polished and I encountered no bugs. The game has good puzzle mechanics and I also liked the 80’s style of the game. I highly recommend this game for serious puzzle lovers. The only negative thing I will say about this game is that the last gate in the last level is very difficult to open. It requires going through an obstacle course in a very limited time. It requires some very difficult platforming. I managed to beat that level but it took me many attempts and required a high dose of luck. But perhaps I did something wrong. Perhaps there was an easier way of doing it and I did not figure it out. Anyway, the game is great. I’m hoping to find more games like this.
