About this game

Causality is a puzzle game about manipulating time, altering the sequence of events and changing the outcome of each level.

Set across strange and alien landscapes, help a group of stranded astronauts find a route to safety. Travel through time, work with your past selves and solve paradoxes as you take on this uniquely challenging puzzler.

Each level represents a brief but hazardous moment in time. Levels are completed by guiding each astronaut to an exit that matches their colour, within a limited time frame. When all astronauts reach an exit the level is complete.

Ratings and reviews

So-so experience. As a puzzler it's fairly straightforward. It's well designed and looks good. But it just feels "off" somehow. Like there's something not quite right with how the solutions are presented. Maybe it's because you're constrained to only so much "time" to expend, or that the puzzle's layout requires so much guess and test. I'm not sure. It's just not for me.

This game is one of the kind I like from start to end (and one of the kind that I am motivated to finish all the achievements). Great mind-bender! Really enjoyed it. Note to developer: there is a bug. When you cause a paradox with changing a direction tile you can't make the tile to change again. Found a workaround: You have to rewind time to some point and back on the time axis and it somehow fixes itself.

Difficult to overstate how BEAUTIFUL this game is and how much care the dev clearly put into the design and the puzzles. The puzzles are all challenging and feature innovative ideas (time travelling teleporters!). Unfortunately however, the controls are a bit clunky / unintuitive (on-screen indicators for up/down would help). Additionally, the game drains too much battery to repeatedly use as an on-the-go puzzle game. Will definitely keep an eye on the developer's other efforts though.
