Timelapse is a gorgeous Myst-clone. It starts with you receiving an urgent message from an archeologist friend working in the Easter Islands on a ancient link to lost civilizations. You arrive at his dig site to find him missing. You are the only person who can find him and your search will eventually lead you to the ancient Egyptian, Mayan, Anasazi, and the lost city of Atlantis. Timelapse's backstory is a subtle blend of well-researched fact and fictional storytelling designed to create an intriguing, thought-provoking tale that introduces and ultimately explains an alien link between ancient civilizations. By combining elements of archaeology, ancient/lost civilizations, ancient history, science fiction and adventure, the creators of Timelapse wanted to challenge the player to ask himself/herself, "What if this could be real? Could it have actually happened?" By locating and reading the missing professor's journal, the story slowly unfolds before the player as he/she travels from world to world and progresses further and further into the game. Each subsequent world visited by the player provides another important piece of the professor’s journal. | ||
