About time in place

Time in Place is a cozy, interactive fiction where you experience life's journey through 6 distinct stages, all within the walls of a single, evolving apartment. Detailed, immersive interactions and sounds combine with a colorful, singular art style to create a rich world you can feel at home in.

Each of the six levels is an endless morning from a unique period of life. A sunny day to put on the radio and do some chores, or a rainy vibe perfect for playing games and reading.

You are free to explore and live in each levels as long as you wish and only progress when you choose to. Return to any level later, to enjoy its unique interactable objects, activities, and vibes.

An ambient narrative is told through the objects and spaces unique to each level. That means it is in part up to you to decide how much you want to learn. Dig through drawers, and piece together notes on scrap paper to discover back stories and romances. Or let the space and objects communicate the vibe.
