Timelie, a captivating PC game renowned for its unique charm and intricate mechanics, has now made its way to Android in early access. This stealth puzzle adventure places you in command of a young girl endowed with precognitive abilities and her charming feline companion as they navigate a time-bending world filled with evil robots.
What Do You Do in Timelie?
In Timelie, you're thrust into a time-manipulating stealth puzzle where the goal is to outsmart relentless robots and escape their grasp. You'll need to sneak past adversaries, solve complex puzzles, and master the art of time control. With the ability to pause, rewind, and fast-forward time, you can experiment with different strategies to progress forward or even backward in the game.
The game challenges you to piece together your path through its atmospheric setting and engaging interactions. You control both the girl and her cat simultaneously, requiring precise coordination to evade detection. The cat can serve as a distraction, allowing the girl to slip by unnoticed, or squeeze into tight spaces inaccessible to her human partner. However, don't be surprised if the cat occasionally indulges in typical feline antics, adding a playful dynamic to your journey.
One of Timelie's standout features is its forgiving approach to failure. Rather than restarting from the beginning, you can simply drag the timeline back and attempt a different tactic, making the experience less frustrating and more enjoyable for stealth puzzle enthusiasts.
As you progress, the game cleverly ramps up in difficulty. Initially, you'll focus on mastering the basics and perfecting your timing. But as you delve deeper, you'll need to master the synchronization of both characters' movements to avoid triggering alarms. Additionally, some levels offer hidden challenges known as relics, which are optional but rewarding for those seeking an extra layer of engagement.
A Surreal Sci-Fi World
Timelie immerses you in a vibrant, abstract world that breathes life into even the most abandoned settings. The game's colorful art style and atmospheric context blend seamlessly, offering a visually stunning experience that might entice players to explore it for its aesthetics alone.
Developed originally by Urnique Studio, the mobile adaptation is being handled by Snapbreak. You can dive into the adventure by downloading Timelie from the Google Play Store, where you can try out Act 1 for free.
