"The best thing about Timelie is the mechanism that allows you to see the future. There have been plenty of time manipulating mechanisms from various games in the past but it’s one of a kind to be implemented in a puzzle environment. The solid foundation of the story also backs up the quality of the game. Not only have they focused on the mechanisms that sugarcoat the genre, but also the element of storytelling is one of the finest out there."

About
Timelapse is a point-and-click adventure game where you follow Professor Nichols' journal to solve puzzles and uncover his disappearance. Navigate various eras and locations using inventory items and environmental clues. The game emphasizes logic and observation over action with a focus on piecing together the professor's last expedition. Released in 1996 Timelapse stands out for its time-travel premise and atmospheric settings. Its 90s-era visuals and occasionally stiff controls feel dated but the puzzle design remains coherent and fair. A lesser-known entry in the genre that’s more curiosity than essential play though it offers a solid challenge for fans of classic adventure games. User forums note mixed reviews with some praising its clever setpieces while others cite pacing issues.
