Iron Danger

The game does not have any manual save feature. Nor does the game save on quit. It explicitly tells you that you will lose progress, when you try to quit, and yet no option to save. The game only autosaves at the end of each chapter. We can rewind time upto 14 "heartbeats". This means that we can block/dodge attacks by rewinding time. Unfortunately, some attacks happen at the edges of these heartbeats, meaning there's no way we can defend or avoid those. Also, I've noticed that enemies don't act the same way they did once we rewind time. For example, if I fell a tree on a group, the enemies under it will die. But when I rewind time to pick action for second character (you can't select actions for both characters at once), the enemies will act differently even if my second character picked no action that round. Yes, this game frustrated me a lot. But still, it's fun at times.

First of all - this is more of a puzzle game than an RPG. So don't go in expecting Baldur's Gate. It's a fun game, not as short as reviews would lead you to believe. The plot is the usual unfortunate "collect the crystals of the elements", but the characters are good enough to make up for it. Including the MC, which I was pleaseantly surprised to see didn't want anything to do with being a hero. It's not perfect by itself, but given that it's appropriately priced, and you can often snatch it for like 2 bucks, it gets full marks from me.

This game introduces an interesting rewind mechanic that I haven’t seen in other games before. It’s a fun idea, and combined with pleasant graphics and well-voiced characters, it makes for an enjoyable experience (at least at first). Unfortunately, the rewind feature quickly becomes a downside. Since you can’t manually save the game, you’re forced to rely on rewinding, which gets frustrating fast. Combat is extremely limited, and worst of all, the game is full of bugs and crashes. Without a proper save system, every crash means starting over, making progress feel like a chore.

Good concept, grafic, story. Need focus to play, it is hard sometime. GJ.

It's a trail and error game, but ressources are enough and the rewind feature the central factor. If you want a decently straight game with a unique gimmick, this is an option.
