Echoes of the Past: The Citadels of Time

The Echoes of the Past series continues with The Citadels of Time dealing with a kingdom that has been cursed from long ago. As before the ancient castle now converted into a modern day museum has been besieged by the evil witch once again. The witch in this third encounter has cast a temporal spell on the museum freezing time to the various parts of the castle trapping its inhabitants in the medieval past. These trapped souls are now only ghostly apparitions trapped forever in her spell of broken clocks which enslave them. You must travel back in time and repair the various time pieces to free these tortured souls and restore the proper time line.

The player interface and game mechanics provide traditional graphical adventure with on screen movement touch points, puzzles and hidden-object search style game play. Hidden object scenes are a mix of traditional word objects at the top of the screen to be found in the scene below. Objects collected in inventory at the top of the screen require the player to drop or drag them onto other items in the scenes to activate or complete needed tasks. Logic puzzles which must be solved are also sprinkled throughout the game to enable story advancement.
