    A rare piece that finds a balance between making time travel believable and time travel a necessity to the plot. It is intelligent and thought provoking in a way that it doesn't insult the audience's acumen.

    If there is one carryover from the Playstation 2 version that I wish would have been changed, it is the ability to only save in the middle or at the end of a chapter.

    A cleverly written adventure game, and offers a thought-provoking twist on the ol' murder-mystery genre. [Sept 2002, p.76]

    Maybe I'm way off base here, but I expect my games to contain actual gameplay and not be a series of ong, poorly acted cut-scenes, lightly salted with puzzles that require the intelligence of a gnat to solve. [Oct 2002, p.114]

    Just as intriguing as the Suikoden series also made by Junko Kawano with yet another wonderfully deep plot.

    In my expirience this is one of the most under-rated games, with an unforunate launch date and other big releases launched around that time, it never did take off to great.
    This game is very original in gameplay, a great story wich doesnt bore you, intresting puzzles but nothing too brainbreaking. Trough the game youll get to know the characters, and get a conection with them.
    This game is without a doubt on my list of "best games ever played" Its an adventure you dont want to miss.    … Expand

    Really forgettable. Aside from the premise it really wasn't much more than a puzzle solver. It's original, but I just found it boring. The only Adventure games I ever liked were Grim Fandango and Full Throttle though.… Expand
