## About This Game
Pyramids are the tombs of the pharaohs. This is what most people believe. But
more and more studies raise doubts about this thesis. Scientists found
indications for ancient egypt being far more technologized than we can
imagine. Hourglass is set in a scenario in which those assumptions are
actually true..
Besides offering an ancient world to explore, Hourglass is mostly about
solving various puzzles with a unique core-mechanic. Your ability allows you
to record your actings for a certain amount of time. After that, time winds
back to the beginning of the recording and a time-clone of yourself appears,
repeating the actions.
On your adventure, you will have to use this ability in creative ways to get
through various areas filled with difficult puzzles.
Your journey leads you to a remote temple where you encounter undiscovered
egyptian technologies and portals to a foreign world. Only by unraveling the
secrets of these long lost technologies, you are able to solve all puzzles on
your quest and eventually find your father.
