About The Time Has Come

Step into the haunting world of The Time Has Come, an indie point and click adventure crafted by a solo developer during late-night creative bursts. This gripping browser-based game thrusts you into a mysterious circular room with no visible exits—a claustrophobic setting that sets the stage for a psychological thriller unlike any other. As you inhabit the role of a protagonist haunted by an unspeakable event, every shadow and object in the room becomes a potential key to your escape or a clue to unravel the chilling tale that binds you.

The game's artistry shines through with hand-crafted visuals built in Adventure Creator for Unity, lending an eerie, dreamlike atmosphere that perfectly complements the game's sinister undertones. As you click through the story, you'll uncover hidden objects, solve inventive puzzles, and trigger unexpected narrative surprises designed to keep you on the edge of your seat. Witness a narrative that explores themes of memory, guilt, and transformation—a unique fusion of psychological horror and interactive mystery.

The Time Has Come is designed for both PC and mobile browsers, making it effortless to dive into at home or on the go. Its approachable difficulty and intuitive controls ensure that gamers of all skill levels can immerse themselves in the unfolding drama, while subtle storytelling invites you to piece together the tragic truth at the core of this escape plot. Are you clever and courageous enough to outsmart the monsters lurking both in the room and within yourself?

Try The Time Has Come now for free—challenge your perception, solve mind-bending puzzles, and see if you have what it takes to escape before it's too late.

How to Play

To begin your journey in The Time Has Come, simply open the game in your favorite browser—no downloads or installations required. As the protagonist, you'll find yourself alone in a mysterious, perfectly circular room. Use your mouse or touchscreen to point and click on objects throughout the environment. Every item can be examined, collected, or interacted with—hover the cursor to reveal clickable hotspots. Solve logic-based puzzles by combining objects in your inventory or interacting with elements in the room in the correct sequence. Pay close attention to environmental clues and subtle hints embedded in the artwork and text; every detail could be the key to your escape.

As you navigate the room, the narrative will unfold through short, evocative story fragments and atmospheric visuals. Make choices and trigger events by clicking in the right order—some puzzles require out-of-the-box thinking and exploration. On mobile, simply tap objects and swipe to inspect your inventory. Don’t rush; instead, let curiosity guide your actions. If you ever feel stuck, revisit earlier clues or examine items again—sometimes new options appear after progression. The game autosaves progress, so you can pause and return anytime. Whether you’re new to point and click adventures or a seasoned escape artist, The Time Has Come offers a suspenseful, rewarding experience tailored for quick sessions or deep, immersive play.
