The “heart of the world,” Chronium, has shattered. In a world falling apart, children without swords fight back by manipulating time. Take flight as a mysterious bird... ■ A Hand-Drawn JRPG Woven with Time This game is a short-form JRPG themed around resisting a looming catastrophe. Players relive the six months leading up to the world’s collapse, looping through time in search of a way to stop it. ■ Strategic Battles Using the Power of Clocks Children unable to wield swords are given a single weapon: the clock. Equip skills at 0, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock to fend off enemies with clever tactics. But beware—some enemies also control time. Disrupting their clockwork may be the key to victory. ■ Soar Through the Maps as a Bird Transform into a mysterious bird and explore the world like a point-and-click adventure. You’ll uncover traps and hidden items—some of which might even change the fate of the characters. ■ Eight Unique Main Characters Eight playable characters rise to face the crisis. Is – The strong-willed, energetic girl who leads the orphans. Liv – A restless, timid boy who loves reading, but occasionally shows surprising insight. Time Cat – A talking cat who appears before Is and her friends. Seems to know something about the fall of Chronium. Ameria – A young researcher and the only specialist on Chronium. She carries deep emotions for the world’s fate. Kabal – Leader of the squad that hunts “bad ghosts” who attack humans and animals. Calm, skilled, and often works solo. Narcier – The elite mage of the squad. Though cold and distant, she has a soft spot for children. Halbarm – A heavy warrior on the front lines. Boisterous and reliable, but avoids anything too strange. Else – A rookie fighter who idolizes heroes and has a special admiration for Ameria. Unstable at times, but undeniably capable. ■ Go Back in Time and Change Fate Your actions unlock new scenes. Even the smallest trigger, the tiniest event, can drastically alter what follows. Can you find a way through this crumbling world? ■ Mischief Time! Kids love to cause trouble—even if the world is ending! Doodle on someone’s back, startle adults with firecrackers... It might ruin a serious moment, or it might be just the thing to unlock something new. ■ Other Features ・All maps and characters are hand-drawn, bringing warmth to the world. The entire soundtrack is original as well. ・The entire soundtrack is also original, with diverse battle and dungeon themes that change dramatically depending on the scene. ・The world doesn’t collapse in an instant—it decays gradually. Fields show creeping corruption. The ground darkens, icons shift from white to orange to ominous red. ・There’s no level-up system. Characters grow slowly through the story. We deliberately removed standard progression to better suit a short-form RPG. Even so, they’ll become strong enough to defeat powerful foes through skill-based strategies. ・Is, the maternal figure of the group, is a great cook. Meals crafted from gathered ingredients are consumable items, but they’ll be crucial for survival.
