A short sci-fi point-and-click adventure about forbidden time travel. Explore a facility outside normal time, solve clever puzzles, and uncover the purpose of The Node. Featuring subtle (and not that subtle) references to classic time-travel movies and TV shows.
The Node
SteamTime travel is possible.
That’s exactly why it must be stopped.
You wake up inside The Node — a sealed facility existing outside normal time.
It wasn’t built to explore the future.
It was built to protect the timeline.
The Node’s only purpose is to ensure that no one interferes with the past, the present, or what comes next.
But something has already gone wrong.
And now you are trapped inside the one place designed to stop time travelers.
Including you.
The Node is a short narrative point-and-click adventure inspired by classic retro games.
Explore a mysterious location, interact with strange technology, and solve puzzles to escape from it.
Then The Node is waiting.
You built a time machine.
The Node was built to stop you.
And it does not grant exceptions.
