The captivating PC game, *Timelie*, has now made its way to Android in early access, bringing its unique charm and intricate mechanics to mobile users. This stealth puzzle adventure immerses you in a time-bending journey where you control both a precognitive little girl and her adorable cat companion, navigating through a world filled with evil robots and challenging puzzles.
What Do You Do in Timelie?
In *Timelie*, you're thrown into a thrilling time-bending stealth puzzle where the main objective is to evade and outsmart relentless robots. You'll need to sneak past enemies, solve complex puzzles, and manipulate time itself by pausing, rewinding, and fast-forwarding to strategize your movements effectively. This innovative approach to gameplay allows you to experiment with different tactics, moving forward or backward in time to find the perfect solution.
The game's atmosphere and interactions are key to piecing together the narrative and advancing through the levels. You control both the girl and her cat simultaneously, requiring precise coordination to avoid detection. The cat can serve as a distraction, enabling the girl to sneak past obstacles, and can also access areas that are out of reach for the girl. However, the cat's unpredictable nature adds a layer of challenge and charm to the gameplay.
One of *Timelie*'s standout features is its approach to failure. Instead of restarting from the beginning, you can simply drag the timeline back and try a different strategy, making the experience less frustrating and more engaging for players.
As you progress, the difficulty ramps up cleverly, starting with basic mechanics and timing, and evolving into more complex synchronization challenges between the two characters to avoid triggering alarms. Additionally, some levels offer optional hidden challenges called relics, which add an extra layer of depth and reward for dedicated players.
A Surreal Sci-Fi World
*Timelie* boasts vibrant, abstract visuals that breathe life into even the most abandoned settings. The game's art style, colors, and context blend seamlessly, creating an immersive experience that some players might enjoy purely for its aesthetic appeal.
The mobile version of *Timelie* is being handled by Snapbreak, while the original development was done by Urnique Studio. You can download *Timelie* from the Google Play Store and experience Act 1 for free.
