Excellent [Posted on 2004-12-18]
This is actually one of the best games I've ever played, and I'm very lazy, so the fact that I would bother to write a recommendation should impress you :-)! The best thing about the plot is that it is multi-dimensional, literally. The action isn't limited to one time period, and I enjoyed getting to see the Louvre as it must have been centuries ago. The puzzles and game interaction aren't too easy or difficult (I did have to go online for hints every now and then), but seemed to be just right. I've handed the game around to several friends, and they loved it as much as I did.
One thing I really liked is the climactic end. Too often I play long games (like 7 games of the soul) and find endings that fizz more often than bang. Not here. It's just right and made me feel like the hours I spent playing it accomplished something
[which--in reality--wasn't true, I guess].

Good Idea, but lacking alot [Posted on 2006-01-02]
In general the gameplay was fun, but it had many flaws.
One issue being the fact that even though you back in time your ALWAYS in the same area, the architecture is differnt in each era but it still lacks alot. One other big dissapointment in the game is how incredibly short it was. Personally i think it was a waste of 10 dollars. this game had obvious potential but, its lack of gameplay and Creativity on some aspects really brought it down.

Just okay [Posted on 2006-04-22]
I enjoyed this game, but it did have a few flaws that were annoying. For instance, some of the characters you had to interact with were hard to understand and you couldn't always get them to repeat themselves. I missed out on some hints that way, and had to go online to find out what I missed. It wasn't my speakers, as I've never had this problem before. Also didn't like that you were more or less forced to do things in a certain order rather than exploring and solving puzzles on your own. Not a bad game overall, but I've played better.
