A Timely Intervention Reviews

I was scanning through games that was affordable and I stumble upon this game. I must admit, I didn't have high expectations because I thought it was ordinary generic RPG. LET ME TELL YOU THIS. I was WRONG. Excellent character. Enjoyable and literally laughing out loud at the interaction between characters. Great story line. Good main lead. Good game play. Overall enjoyable. Its an old RPG experience. Almost took me back to when I played Chrono Trigger. Great Game. 9/10

Entertaining game but I wish there were more relationship-developing events throughout the game. The ending seems out of place in terms of character pairings.

The game is rich in story, plot, suspense and then the typical fun of RPG. I like Indinera's gaming ideology for long and to see it without any stupid comments about sex and gender and without any over-sexualization of the whole game/graphics etc. It was a delight! I would pay twice the price for the game.

A Timely Intervention brings classic RPG mechanics with a well-written story, offering a nostalgic experience. The game’s turn-based combat is simple but effective, and the narrative keeps things interesting. While it doesn't break new ground, it does provide solid gameplay and a charming art style. The best part? Scoring this game at a 90% discount makes it an incredible value for the price. The developers crafted an accessible yet engaging RPG, perfect for anyone looking to unwind with a classic adventure. Time Investment: 20 hours Completion: 80% Value Rating: 9/10 Stay focused. Keep grinding.

This is an interesting game. The concept involves time travel in hopes of reversing the pollution of the "present" day (considering they have time travel, it is probably future to us). A journalist hears a rumor that the military might be involved in some secret project, goes to check on it... and touches the wrong buttons (of course), stranding him and someone else in the past. While trying to survive, they make acquaintances and try to fit in. Gameplay is smooth, and the graphics are beautiful (for an RPGMaker). Areas are set up with care and forethought, as are encounters. This game looks to be quite a blast.

This is a really sweet little rpg-maker game! Like most of the other Aldorlea titles, it's fun, well balanced and customizable. You are free to choose between visible or invicible enemies, various difficulties, and mouse, gamepad or keyboard controls. It has nice artwork, music and you can even play with two seperate parties in the beginning. It has pretty good writing, too, so I definitely recommend checking out A Timely Intervention.

I liked this game a lot and think it's a pretty good example of how RPG maker games can still be a lot of fun. Without spoiling a lot of details, this is a pretty classic time traveling meets fantasy past story, with several characters being from the future and having to deal with the effects they're having with timelines in the past. There's some generic time traveling tropes that don't necessarily make this a compelling SCI FI story, but the game more than makes up for this with its design. A lot of the playable party characters might be a little generic in their characterizations but there's some charm to the writing and interactions with the characters that make me root for them and want to see the rest of the adventure through. For a small RPG title this one is pretty meaty, I was able to play the game all the way through, completing all the side quests and finding all the hidden rooms with the help of a guide in about 19 hours. I wouldn't say that a ton of grinding is necessary, but if you absolutely can't stand grinding this may be a game to avoid. I think the game has a very good progression system that makes you characters slowly build in power, as well as a system that allows your attacks to deal more damage as you continually use them over time. There's a very wide range of abilities to use, and there's enough depth in here in terms of buffs and status effects to appreciate thinking tactically and learning how to strategize. I really enjoyed the battle system and it was probably the best part of the game. Again without spoiling, I also think the second half of the game comes together really nicely and I appreciated the ending and all of the story lines being wrapped up in a satisfying way. If you've enjoyed some of the more combat heavy RPG maker titles I definitely recommend giving this game a chance, it very much reminded me of an old school 16 bit rpg, slowly acquiring new powers and making my characters stronger, grinding away to face the bosses which also provided a tough but fair challenge. Thumbs up!

+ Time travel setting + Humor (especially the part where the slips up of the journalist are being disguised by the other char from the future by calling him "simple" ) + 2 seperate parties let you get to know 10 different chars + when the parties unite again, those not in your active party still gain XP, in case you change your mind + you don't need to finish every single sidequest / find all the secrets for the achievements - the part where you get to play with a custom party is very short - close to no equipment - much hand holding - balancing of the skills - too easy (even on legendary) verdict: buy on sale

A very well made game. The attention to detail in the maps is great, and so far it has been very balanced, in terms of minimal need for grinding, the rewards given for exploration and sidequests. For the most part, each party member is useful too. The story is quite well made, the interactions between characters are well written and show consistent character, and there is plenty of humour, and much of it is genuinely funny. I have to admit that the humour can be a bit "trope-y" at times, but a lot of the humour is unique to the setting of the story, and so there is also some originality in there too. One thing I liked was that the majority of weapons that you get are not bought in stores. Most (so far) are found through story events. Also, each new piece of equipment is not strictly crucial, there hasn't yet been a need to grind, but there has still been good rewards for exploration. This is the first game by this creator that I've played and it really is well made.

This is a nice, well made RPG with about 20+ hours of game play, if you do all the side quests. The storyline is interesting as it involved time travel and a mix of both technology and magic. The gameworld is detailed and I played from beginning to end without encountering any bugs which is wonderful. I was also able to get all the achievements in a single playthrough. The searching for secret rooms and hidden objects is another interesting hallmark of Aldorlea games which made exploration both fun and profitable. I enjoyed it. This is an short/average-length, wonderful game and I recommend it to any old school RPG gamer who would like a bug free and enjoyable experience.
