Gameplay
Gameplay
• Illustration — In-game screenshot Hands of Time is a top-down action game set across a small overworld. The game features a puzzle element, item-swapping sequences that must be solved in order to progress, and combat with enemy soldiers in between. The player starts with a small pistol with infinite ammo, and can collect more powerful weapons. Progress across the game is saved via passwords.
Reception
Reception of Hands of Time was mixed. Total Game Boy expressed confusion about its unorthodox plot and setting, stating "We don't quite get this game...the more you play it, the stranger it gets. It's basically a shoot 'em up RPG, but there are so many strange elements to the story you have to wonder whether the designers...just decided to do whatever came into their heads." Game Boy Xtreme noted that whilst the story was "interesting" and the maps were "intelligently designed", the game featured "weak graphics".
