sonder. It is a SciFi third person Mystery Adventure game unlike anything you have ever played. It is a non-interactive non-linear time loop where you can completely control space, time and the lives of everyone in it.
You are given a slice of time to analyze - you can observe from the sidelines when the same mistakes are made over and over again, or you can take control of any character at any moment and experience events from that character's unique perspective. Then you can guide them through choices that will eventually lead them to salvation or to their torment.
Time is brutal for the characters, but for you it's just a resource. You can start the time loop again at any time. You can rewind to any point in the loop and attempt to change what happened from that point on.
The only place where knowledge can go from one cycle to the next is in your head!
The characters in the story have no memories of events from previous cycles. When you start the loop again or rewind - they have to relearn what they already knew. It will be up to you to get them to find the information (you just know it's there) faster and do something with it.
As you become more and more familiar with the story and the roles of the character in it - a deeper mystery will become apparent. How far will you begin to unravel in the first episode?
