That is until a mysterious voice promises that Zeno could get his sister back... he only needs to take on a challenge created by the Ancients.

    Time Master combines platforming and time manipulation wrapped up in a story told through cinematic cut scenes packed with surprises. Guide Zeno as he completes the Ancients' trials to recover time fragments and defeat the evil wizard Lucix in this relaxing puzzle game.

    Time Master is an incredible puzzle game with great visuals and interesting gameplay mechanics that are executed almost flawlessly. There are a few minor issues; a somewhat empty story outside of Zeno saving his sister, as well as the need to be pixel-perfect to obtain some of the three-star rankings. But thankfully you can play the game casually and still finish the game’s story without too much stress.

    Time Master is one entry in a crowded genre that manages to stand out thanks to its unique mechanics. The fact that the game has a demo makes it easy for anyone to play it and see how they like the time manipulation concept. I, for one, appreciate the way players need to think about two timelines and coordinate their actions to move through levels as quickly as possible. The problem is that the unique time mechanic is the only thing about the title that really stands out. The narrative and characters are just sketches, with nothing to make them interesting. The presentation is almost the definition of average. Time Master is part of a big group of games that have one cool unique idea to show off but its developers at MorpheusZ need to deliver more to make their next title really stand out.

    Cookie cutter puzzle game. Terribly boring cookie cutter story (evil wizard imprisoned the damsel in distress). Stages very low on variety.Cookie cutter puzzle game. Terribly boring cookie cutter story (evil wizard imprisoned the damsel in distress). Stages very low on variety. Collect orbs, go to exit. Sometimes hit a button or try a different route due to collapsing bridges. Press a button to spawn a mirror image of you who does half the work. After 4 or 5 levels things already felt very samey, with only layout changes but no cool mechanics. Typical 3 star rating system depending on how fast a level is solved. Would make an OK mobile game, bit too shallow for PC. Game runs & looks fine. Can be fine to play for someone who wants a very simplistic puzzle experience with familiar mechanics.Overall meh. Expand
