Chronigma

From the Devs

Who is this made for: Gamers who like taking their time to enjoy time manipulation sokoban-like puzzles with a text narrative story.  The game starts out with traditional sokoban mechanics and then introduces the time manipulation mechanics at Level 6 (around 20 minutes into the game).

Story: They called it the Time War. A conflict where humanity's greatest achievement, time travel, became its tombstone. Born into a silent world, you are Cygnus, and your father, Kronos, has dedicated his life to one purpose: your training. This puzzle adventure is a series of his lessons (puzzles), each one a challenging test of your ability to manipulate time. 

Game: This is a single-player, story-rich (text narrative), time-bending puzzle game. You use time travel to be in two places at once to solve increasingly complex puzzles. With the Chronigma device, you are never truly alone. You record your actions, travel back in time, and team up with your "Past Self" to solve puzzles impossible for a single person. Your success hinges on your ability to collaborate with yourself. 

Controller Support: Chronigma supports Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch controllers natively, so no setup needed and Steam Input should be OFF. If you experience controller input not working, double inputs or wrong button icons, try disabling Steam Input (Library → Chronigma → Properties → Controller → "Disable Steam Input") and restart the game.
