How it feels

A single-player shooter driven by the turn-based strategy of re-running your own past actions as ghostly teammates.

What players say

Players enjoy the clever time-loop gimmick where you fight alongside recordings of your past runs, but many find the gameplay repetitive and shallow after a few hours. The game is short and has not been updated for years, and some wish for a VR version or a more polished sequel.
