Enjoy Playing Time Twist
You know that moment when everything slows down and you can almost feel time stretching like taffy? That’s the core thrill of Time Twist. From the moment you boot it up, it feels like you’ve stumbled into one of those dreamscapes where the rules of physics are negotiable and you, the player, get to call the shots. The visuals have this playful glow—bright neon highlights against muted backgrounds—that makes each level look like a living memory you’re about to rewrite. There’s a real joy in poking at the environment, watching objects drift backward through their motions, and figuring out how to stitch your own path forward.
But it isn’t just about rewinding or fast-forwarding willy-nilly. Time Twist gives you these clever little gadgets—a pocket watch that records your actions and a sundial drone that can pause floating platforms mid-air. You’ll find yourself thinking ahead two or three steps, because triggering a switch at exactly the wrong nanosecond can send everything into chaos (and sometimes that’s exactly what you want). The puzzles start off gentle enough—guide a rolling ball back to its starting point, reopen doors you slammed shut—but soon enough you’re juggling multiple timelines, shadow clones of yourself, and overlapping sound cues that act as rhythmic triggers.
What really sold me, though, is the story tucked between the brain-teasers. Without drowning you in exposition, Time Twist gently unfurls a tale of a researcher who got a bit too curious about messing with causality—spoiler, it didn’t end well. As you hop between snapshots of his lab and these empty halls echoing with your own footsteps, you pick up scraps of notebooks and logs that hint at regrets, breakthroughs, and a race against something that’s slowly unraveling. It ends on a note that’s equal parts hopeful and bittersweet, leaving you chewing on the possibilities long after you’ve set the controller down.
