Well now, here's another offering! A pseudo-tutorial on temporal tokens, ranging from some introductory rooms to give new players the idea as to how they work, through interesting and novel applications of tokens for player benefit and architect delight, culminating in some devilish challenges to really make sure you understand the full potential of the tools.

I'm hoping this hold is not only fun to play, but is also useful as a reference resource for both players (tactics reference) and architects (widgets, enforcement methods, particular construction methods to both look out for and pitfalls to avoid).

There's no story, just a whole bunch of puzzles arranged 5 to a level in roughly increasing difficulty and some minor thematic cohesion within a level. Enjoy, and let me know what you think!

Haven't had to play with this sort of puzzle element since i played the talos principle in 2015, but i managed to pass the first floor. Beta seems tough but ive got an idea on how to do one of the puzzles i've seen there.

Very nice hold, really. Happy to have played/practiced this a bit in architecture, since it is pretty difficult. Disoriented has actually started drinking because of it... (the difficulty, I mean, not the fact that I played it)

Puzzles are amazingly original. Many mechanisms I hadn't seen before.
