    Whirlight: No Time to Trip is point-and-click that oozes passion and charm in its world, characters, narrative and gameplay. Its main issue is that it falls for the biggest and most common trapping of its genre: the ingenuity of its interactions come at the cost of some solutions being less intuitive than would be ideal. The result is a game that can be just as frustrating as it is whimsical.

    This crazy time-travel adventure is a great variation on the Back to the Future movies. You'll love the two main characters. You'll struggle at times, laugh a lot, and you'll definitely not get bored.
