Time Clones is a puzzle game that combines strategy and time travel with unexpected twists that force you to come up with clever new ways to play.
What is the special Clone mechanism in Time Clones?
- The player moves his character to find a way to the finish line. You can move forward, backward, or jump to perform the necessary actions.
- In this game, there is a clone creation mechanism, which means creating a clone that looks like your character but has a lighter color; it is like a shadow of your character. When you activate Clone, time will go back to the starting point of that level.
- You cannot move your clone; it will automatically repeat exactly the entire sequence of actions that the player just performed when creating the clone.
How to use Clone correctly
- Your clone can hold the switch during the game; there are many levels that require the support of the clone to be able to pass.
- Your clone can hold the switch to open the door, and your main character can cross.
- Your clone can also form a platform to help your character jump over the gap or jump high.
- Clones can be used to activate or be destroyed by traps, helping the main character go safely.
III. How does Time Clones stimulate your thinking?
- This game is not about skill, but it is about the ability to think logically in multiple dimensions and time programming. The player must determine the final state to be achieved and then calculate backwards.
- Your clone will repeat the action perfectly, including the smallest mistakes in timing. If you jump 0.5 seconds late during the recording, Clone will jump 0.5 seconds late.
- Puzzles often require precise synchronization between two or more versions of you. For example, Clone A must push the block exactly when the main character is jumping, or Clone B must flip the switch exactly when Clone A just passed. The slightest deviation will cause the entire setup to fail.
