Out at midnight: Chronology has you helping a time-travelling inventor and his pet snail

Osao Games's puzzle platformer Chronology will be leaping from PC to iOS at midnight.

The game reviewed quite positively on PC but was marked down by some for its short length, is seems.

It should be ideal for iOS then, perhaps - where short play sessions rule.

It's a charming-looking game inspired by Studio Ghibli animations. As such, it'll have you helping an Old Inventor and The Snail as they travel to the past and future in order to fix the present.

It's not a Braid clone; don't you even think it.

That said, you will be stopping, rewinding, and fast-forwarding through time while manipulating objects to solve its puzzles.

You'll also need to switch back-and-forth between the inventor and the snail, using their individual strengths to get across the levels.

You'll be able to download the first chapter (with three episodes) for free. While the second chapter is available as an IAP, with more chapters to come.

Chronology will be available on the UK and US App Stores at midnight. There's more information on its website.
