I’m only at Chapter 2 right now (bicycle), and the story is very interesting, the interface is implemented well too. “Butterfly Effect” definitely sprung to mind ever since I saw the game’s trailer, wonder if it’s as scary as the movie.

I would have to see if the game is indeed short, because I find myself having less and less time playing games these days and I don’t mind moderate length games at all, as long as the experience is satisftying, 40-50 hrs RPGs seem like a difficult task for me now.

Among recent games that deal w/ changing the past, like Infinite Loop or Sigma Harmonics, Time Hollow seems to have nailed it as the other two felt extremely repetitive rather than fun. In Sigma Harmonics, the “same” people die over and over in different ways, it feels like Kenny from SouthPark rather than deja vu..

I have the game sitting on my desk, but I’ve had no time to actually start it. But I’m glad that it has mostly positive feedback, I can be confident that I haven’t wasted my money on it. Now I’m looking forward to playing it ^^

a prequal would be nice, after all Ethens father seems to have used the Pen quite a lot as well. That could make for an interesting story.

Yup, that’s the one downside. If you can overlook the shortness of the adventure, it is really a wonderful story and game.

I ended up finishing the main storyline in a single afternoon. I got home from work, started playing, and before I knew it I was done.

A sequel would be nice, or perhaps a prequel/spin-off.

This game truly pulled me in, a real masterpiece ! Too bad I completed it pretty fast though… I wished they’d announce a sequel.

Yeah i agree. I just finished this two days ago. Too short. Great story though….i thought it was lame at the start.

I still need to finish up the final chapter, but I gotta say, I’m disappointed in this game’s length. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by the Phoenix Wright games, but I was expecting the adventure to last a bit longer.
