Time heals all wounds; they say; but the sudden death of a loved one sometimes shakes those who are left behind so much that their faith wavers. To prevent this; the gods send fate weavers to change the past and prevent death. In the game series UNDO; players slip into the role of these destiny weavers and do everything in their power to undo sudden deaths — whether murder or suicide. Not only do they travel minutes or hours back in time; but sometimes thousands of years to change events that have laid the foundation for the later stroke of fate. Sometimes a leap into the future can also provide important information.
The UNDO series combines the theme of time travel with emotional; extraordinary stories that players must assemble piece by piece. Each time jump gives them another choice in how they can change the past — and not every change is a turn for the better!
