About the Game

How far would you go to prove your innocence?

Milan has it all. Caring parents, good grades, and friends (or acquaintances, as he prefers to call them). But everything he knows collapses when he becomes the sole suspect in the brutal murder of his parents, with every piece of evidence pointing toward him.

In order to prove his innocence

Milan must unravel the lies and secrets behind the murder. But the deeper he digs, the harder it becomes to trust anyone — even himself. Is he truly innocent, or is there an ugly truth hidden beneath the cracks of reality?

Time Crack is a mystery and psychological thriller visual novel about truth, trust, and doubt. Follow Milan’s choices, investigations, and discoveries in the search for the truth — and only the truth. Will you uncover it… or be destroyed by it?

Key features

·       ~6-8 hours of gameplay (70-80K words) depending on your choices. Immerse yourself in a suspenseful narrative full of twists and dark secrets. 

·       Multiple endings and routes. Your choices matter in Time Crack. Which ending will you reach, and what sacrifices must be made along the way?

·       Original, scene-specific CG illustrations. Time Crack doesn't hold back on depicting blood, corpses, and death.

·       Interactive investigation segments. Search for clues and evidence in pursuit of the truth. Who killed Milan's parents? It's up to you to find out. 

·       Choose between Gameplay Mode and Narration Mode. If you prefer to just read, Time Crack can be played entirely without choices and investigations. Follow the canon route without additional branching!
