2023-02-20	La*****	I get that it's about time travel and its consequences, but the story is way too impersonal. It starts out nice enough and then it's a maze of what do I do next to trigger the next part? VERY frustrating.

2022-05-06	Ja*****	This is an example of a game that uses the choice medium well. You're quickly drawn into how addictive it would be to have the power to go back in time and change events in order to "fix" them. But nothing happens in a vacuume, and you see the butterfly effect come into play. Solve one issue, and a new one might just take its place. Worthwhile read.

2018-11-05	A *****	The level of depth in this game is so impressive. I didn't think I would like the game as much as I did. It got really frustrating at times but when I figured out what to do, it felt sooo good! Greg is a prick. I had no qualms in encouraging him to go on that little train ride :) The take home message was typical in this kind of game: accept your reality. Even if you could change it, you'd probably make it worse. Mad props to the author -- I absolutely love this!

2018-01-30	A *****	Not really a CYOA game. It gets incredibly repetitive rereading the same things over and over again, in order to advance the plot. It was an interesting take on time travel, but just not my kind of game.

2017-04-22	A *****	There's just so little that actually makes sense, and you aren't given any real choices. You can't change the outcome in the end, which is what Choice of games are all about. It's possible to be thought provoking without forcing the narrative.

2016-01-13	A *****	This is more of a puzzle than the usual CoG. It's something new, and the story just makes you think about time travel and just life in general. Finished it once, uninstalled it (for now), but I might come back to try getting all other endings later. Playing it nonstop in one day and just seeing the same thing happening again and again gets tiring after a while haha.

2015-09-12	A *****	This game utterly confuses me, it's more of a puzzle than a choose your own adventure. Theres so much to re read over, and over and over. I got easily lost, after several attempts of playing through. Ironic, really. I like the concept, but its so frustrating trying to look for new options and not knowing or remembering what you've done or haven't done.
