Overview

What TIME Is It invites players into a unique puzzle experience where the core mechanic revolves around manipulating time to achieve specific outcomes. You're not just playing a character; you're elevated to the role of a divine being, holding the reins of time and space.

The game presents familiar scenarios, from classic scenes like eggs and salutes to more intriguing situations such as children tracking a murderer, a man walking his dog, a hooded assassin, or even a train carrying a bomb. In this world, these elements are not the protagonists but rather pieces on your temporal chessboard.

  • A Divine Perspective: Step into the shoes of a god who controls time and space, altering events to find the correct "time."
  • Familiar Yet Twisted Scenarios: Encounter classic and intriguing scenes, reimagined as puzzles where your temporal manipulation is key.
  • Varied Eras and Roles: Experience different historical periods and play as diverse characters, from medieval Master Assassins to primitive humans, each offering a unique approach to solving time-based puzzles.
