The enchanting PC game, *Timelie*, has made its way to Android in early access, bringing its unique charm and intricate mechanics to a new audience. This stealth puzzle adventure immerses you in the lives of a little girl with precognitive abilities and her charming cat companion, as they navigate a world filled with evil robots.
What Do You Do in Timelie?
In *Timelie*, you're thrust into a time-bending stealth puzzle experience where your primary adversaries are relentless robots. Your mission? To sneak past these enemies, solve complex puzzles, and manipulate time itself. You can pause, rewind, and fast-forward through moments to strategize the best path forward—or even backward—to outwit your robotic foes and escape their grasp.
The game's atmosphere and interactions are key to piecing together your escape strategy. You simultaneously control both the girl and her cat, requiring precise coordination to avoid detection. The cat can serve as a distraction, allowing the girl to slip past unnoticed. Meanwhile, the cat's ability to squeeze into tight spaces the girl can't reach adds another layer of strategy to your gameplay.
One of *Timelie*'s standout features is its approach to failure. Instead of restarting from scratch, you can simply drag the timeline back to retry a different tactic, making the game less punishing and more enjoyable for stealth puzzle enthusiasts.
As you progress, *Timelie* cleverly ramps up the difficulty. Initially, you'll focus on mastering the basics and perfecting your timing. Later levels challenge you to synchronize the movements of both characters without triggering alarms, testing your skills to the limit.
For those seeking an extra challenge, some levels hide optional relics that add to the game's replay value and reward your curiosity and skill.
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's visually appealing enough to draw players in for the aesthetics alone.
Snapbreak is behind the mobile adaptation, while Urnique Studio originally crafted this captivating world. You can dive into *Timelie* on the Google Play Store and explore Act 1 for free, experiencing the game's innovative gameplay and stunning visuals firsthand.
