About the Game

Time LurkerYou are an experiment, a product of a twisted lab, where you became something more—or perhaps, something less—than human. In Time Lurker, your goal is to survive, evolve, and escape the endless loop of time that traps you.

As a parasitic creature, you must seek out hosts to feed on, absorbing their data to grow stronger. Each time you perish, your journey isn't over. By laying eggs, you ensure the continuation of your species, but with every resurrection, the world around you shifts. The environments, enemies, and obstacles you face are different with each new life, providing a fresh and challenging experience every time.

Your mastery over time is your greatest weapon. Use your time manipulation abilities to control the flow of battle:

Slow Time


Gain the upper hand by slowing down the world around you, giving you precious moments to strategize or escape danger.

Time Stop


Halt time itself, allowing you to bypass threats or prepare your next move with precision.

Time Rewind


Undo your mistakes by rewinding time, giving you a second chance at survival.

World Line Shift


When you die and hatch anew, the world changes. Shift between realities, each with its own dangers and secrets.
Time Lurker offers a relentless and rewarding experience for players who seek a challenge. Are you ready to master time and escape the never-ending cycle?
