✦ AI summary

Players appreciate this time-travel narrative game for its compelling storytelling and the freedom to alter timelines to explore different outcomes, with some praising how it surprised them with depth and complexity. However, the core loop of repeatedly making choices and rewinding through the same dialogue to manipulate events becomes tedious for some players, who find the backtracking and repetitive text wearing despite the game's engaging premise. The experience resonates strongly with fans of branching narratives and time-travel mechanics, though those seeking less repetition may find the

Overly repetitious choices to a puzzle about how to fix a life that ends up sucking for the MC. Back and forth and back and forth through different events just to manipulate the outcome to be something else and having to reread the same dialogue over and over again.

I've played this game countless times on iOS, but it was really great to get to play it on Steam. It holds up really well and is a lot of fun to play!

The time travel game that I've always wanted. Nothing but Millennia: Altered Destinies has ever truly scratched this particular itch of the freedom to alter the past to try to change the future. I'm hoping the 3D game No Time lives up to this simple text adventure.

THIS ♥♥♥♥ SLAPS BUY IT RIGHT NOW. It gets a lot deeper and mind-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ than what I initially expected, 10/10 played it with my friend until 3 in the morning cause it was too interesting to stop. My third eye definitely opened today. Maybe my fourth too. Fifth tomorrow when I play it again.
