Overview
Description

You play as Ashley Ford, a professional thief on a personal quest to find her missing father. Armed with a mysterious crystal that lets you travel through time, you explore the eerie Three Oak Mansion and piece together its secrets. The game blends classic point‑and‑click adventure with clever puzzles, delivering a narrative‑driven experience for solo players. Set in a richly detailed 2D world, Crystals of Time challenges you to manipulate objects across different eras, uncover hidden clues, and solve the mystery of the mansion’s past. Its indie charm and atmospheric storytelling make each discovery feel rewarding, while the time‑travel mechanic adds a fresh twist to the genre.

Project Temporality is a third‑person action‑puzzle adventure that lets you control the fourth dimension. Using Defrost Games’ proprietary Sparta 3D engine, you can rewind, fast‑forward, and branch timelines at any moment to overcome obstacles. Explore a sci‑fi world filled with lasers, mirrors, force fields, and hidden platforms while uncovering the stories of its inhabitants. The game offers single‑player freedom to experiment with time‑based mechanics and solve intricate puzzles.
