Time Master

About

Time Master lets you bend time to solve puzzles by working with your own past actions. As Zeno, you rewind moments to create paths for your current self to follow. Each level forces you to coordinate between past and present to unlock gates and avoid traps. The story follows Zeno’s quest to reverse his sister’s disappearance by completing challenges set by ancient beings. Platforming sections mix with timed brain teasers that require precise rewinds. The game’s puzzles stand out for their clever use of time loops and cause-effect logic. Players praise the voice acting and story pacing which weaves humor with the urgency of fixing mistakes. With over 40 levels split across increasingly complex environments the rewind mechanic stays fresh. Available on PC Switch and Linux it offers a self-contained indie experience that takes about 8 hours to finish.

Storyline

Zeno has accidentally banished his sister, so what now? Create paradoxes to help him complete trials and bring her back, obviously. Take on a wide variety of tightly timed puzzles while collaborating with your past self and experiencing a fully-voiced cinematic story as you help Zeno bring her back. After the disappearance of his sister Sophia (which may or may not have been his fault), talented wizard Zeno vows to never take up his wizard’s staff again. 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.
