The Timeless Child - Prologue

The Timeless Child is a duo puzzle game that had pretty good puzzles! Story - This is just the prologue so it doesn't go too deep into the story, but it was interesting for what was there. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Characters - I do like it when there are separate characters in a duo game! I do wish we could've seen the other characters design more. I think my favorite part of the characters was having the little girl character (I forgot her name lol) lead through her bell! That was an interesting mechanic that I enjoyed!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mechanics - There isn't much to say about the actual gameplay mechanics, they were easy to use and didn't cause any problems. Like I said before, the bell mechanic was so creative! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Visuals - Not many "wow" visuals but I liked how each room was different. The intro cutscene was nice.⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soundtrack - Pretty basic soundtrack, not much to discuss! Worked for this style of game! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Puzzles - Wow these were actually difficult. They weren't just straightforward "do tasks to help your friend" and required you to actually think! The dining room puzzle ESPECIALLY. That puzzle was frustrating for me (might've been because the original person I played with didn't actually do it right so of course I had to call my best friend that has been mentioned in so many of these reviews haha). The greenhouse one was fun, the first puzzle was relatively simple. My favorite puzzles were the clock puzzle and the playroom puzzle (more on that in the next section). ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Duo playability - I loved the way the two interacted! Again, loved the bell idea so so much!! The clock puzzle was fun to figure out with the duo, but the playroom was SO fun. No communication except the bell, what a way for chaos to emerge. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I probably will end up buying the full game as I liked the prologue more than I thought I would!
