Advantages: Fun gameplay, Good graphics, Good sound.

Disadvantages: Doesn't work that well on older computers, Levels could be too hard.

This game is incredible! You play Colonel Swift, who was a researcher at a military research base, and creator of the quantum suit, a item of clothing that lets you travel through time. Unfortunately, Krone, another researcher decides he wants to go back in time first, and create his own time line with him as ruler. Then he tries to blow up the military base. Luckily, you, being a hero, grab the unfinished "beta" suit, and follow him, to a slightly gory scene of one of your co-workers exploding.
You arrive into a drizzling rain, with the notice that suit functionality has been altered....and it has. You get the ability to stop, slow, and rewind time! And they are all implemented very well. the abilities tie in well with the game, many of the levels requiring you to solve time related puzzles.
The graphics are good, realistic textures, and they fit the grey, bleak world of this alternate universe.
The sound is realistic too, voices slowing under slow times, a high speed jabbering with rewind, and dead silence under time stop.
The few bad things about this game are that it requires a fairly new graphics card to run it, the levels sometimes require hours of working out, and that the sound may glitch on older computers. Other than that, it's well worth the buy!

Summary: A great game, well worth the buy!
