4.0 out of 5 stars Review of game, not of guide, November 11, 2003

By 

Danno (Louisa, Va) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Timelapse: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)

I played this game a couple of years agp and really enjoyed it. The puzzles were stimulating and the worlds were stunning. The game kept me interested up until the end, then came the bad part!

The dredded words.... TO BE CONTINUED. What a terrible way to end a game. There was no sense of closure. I immediately went online to see if there was a sequal and to my horror discovered that the software division of GTE had been desolved and that no Part 2 would ever be made.

It's still a fun game, but be mentally prepaired for a dissapointment at the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Puzzling yet exciting, May 19, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Timelapse: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)

This game was one of the best I have played in a long time. You have to find the Lost City of Atlantis. You go through many different worlds. You have to solve puzzles and crack codes. The game is very interesting and hard to stop playing. If you liked this game I would suggest, Titanic: Adventure out of time. This is also a very good game. Both made by the same company. ...................
