Paradox Agency

A time-bending puzzle spy game about two agents working together across timelines to complete difficult missions.

The player first traverses a level facing impossible odds - there will be unavoidable deaths, hopelessly locked doors, and unending mazes of corridors... unless someone were there to remove the dangers before they even happen. In this game, you play both sides of that story. In the second play-through, you will go back through time to help your past self in traversing the level - but you must be careful not to disturb the space-time continuum or create paradoxes, as past and future realities do not mix well.

Enjoy a mind-boggling tactical puzzle where the greatest unknown is yourself - from another timeline.

How to play

There are two game phases for every level - first you go through in "normal time", as an agent with no special powers - except for the ability to rely on the help of your future self. You can get killed and continue walking. You can walk through a locked door just fine. But each of these actions creates a time paradox - a debt that your future self will have to solve.

In the second phase, you are that other self. Your job is to kill the enemy guard before they have a chance to shoot your past agent. Find a way to open that locked door before your clueless character from the first timeline walks through. Create a reality in which those impossible actions your past self took are plausible. If you don't - realities will collide in an unfathomable paradox.
