Developer's Introduction:

In the distant future, humanity is nearing it's end. A monster that was slain by the divine long ago has returned and is hunting down all life. Now a group of people have managed to get an old device up and running, this will allow Jason to go back in time and try to save this dark and desperate future. Along the way he will meet people who have a certain impact in time, but can he change that impact or is time truly set in stone?

His journey will take him to four different times, each having their own style and characters. Along the way he will uncover deep dark secrets that will change how everyone sees the world and universe. In the end nothing will be the same.

Each act has their own story that ties into the full story of the game. Stop a mad man from bringing forth a terrible beast, fight against a crazed who will stop at nothing to take over the land, and find a way to free the world from the control of a messed up a.i. All the while changing the future.

Each town, dungeon and other maps are full of hidden paths, puzzles and awesome treasure. Each act's puzzle get more complicated and become more rewarding. Also there are very challenging ones along the way but their rewards are great!

There are many hidden throughout the land, even some trash items may turn into great rewards later on. Some side quests even go through the acts. Like finding a use for a simple useless stick, or taking on a tower frozen in ice to reclaim a stolen song book and more.
