The enchanting world of the popular PC game, *Timelie*, has now made its way to Android in early access. This stealth puzzle adventure game offers a unique experience where you control both a young girl with precognitive abilities and her charming cat companion as they navigate a time-bending challenge to evade evil robots.
What Do You Do in Timelie?
*Timelie* is a captivating time-manipulation stealth puzzle game where you strategically combat robotic adversaries. The gameplay involves sneaking past enemies, solving intricate puzzles, and cleverly using time mechanics. You can pause, rewind, or fast-forward time to strategize the best path forward—or backward—to outsmart the robots that aim to thwart your escape.
The game's atmosphere and interactions guide you to piece together the narrative and mechanics. You simultaneously control both the girl and the cat, requiring synchronized movements to avoid detection. The cat can serve as a distraction, allowing the girl to slip past unnoticed. This dual control adds a layer of complexity and fun to the gameplay.
One of the refreshing aspects of *Timelie* is its approach to failure. Instead of restarting from the beginning, you can simply drag the timeline back and attempt a different strategy, making the stealth puzzle experience less frustrating and more engaging.
The cat isn't just for show; it can access tight spaces the girl can't reach, although sometimes it behaves like a typical feline, adding a humorous and relatable dynamic to the duo's journey.
The game's difficulty ramps up cleverly. Initially, it focuses on teaching the basics and timing, but as you progress, the challenge shifts to synchronizing both characters without setting off alarms. For those looking for extra challenges, optional relics hidden within levels provide additional rewards.
