Denbora

I did not knew what Denbora means so I looked it up on the internet. Denbora is the Basque word for time (this game was made in Spain). So that makes sense. In the game you switch back and forth between two moments in time, the present and the future, to solve puzzles. What you do in the present also affects the future but what you do in the future does not affect the present. Also, the present and future does not always look the same in terms of walls, staircases and puzzle elements. Some elements might be different between the present and future. For some kind of reason I'm quite bad at this game. I often got stuck and when I finally solved the puzzle my reaction was: Is that it? Was is that simple? How could my brain not have solved this sooner? Seemingly difficult puzzles that have simple solutions are good puzzles. So that is a plus. What I liked about this puzzle game is that there are no timed puzzles in the game. You have all the time in the world to solve the puzzles. There is also no platforming in the game, that is something I often have difficulty with in first person puzzle games. So playing this game is nice and relaxed, no stress. You don't need to solve all the …

Takes a little time to wrap your head around, but every solved puzzle feels earned. The mechanics are clever without being overwhelming. The challenge spikes unpredictably at times, but overall it’s satisfying to figure things out.

Neat little puzzle game from a small studio. This game was fun, if sometimes taxing. I enjoyed the writing, time-manipulation puzzles, and Portal-vibes. Good for short play sessions to get your grey-cells working!

These puzzles have expanded the way I think about timelines. Pretty good use of the time jump mechanic and a deep reflecting story too

I love it. If you like games like Portal, this is a game for you.
