Finity

Finity is a 3D sidescroller in which you play as John, an art thief who calls himself an agent. With help from Bob, his longtime friend and cyber nerd, John travels through time to recover artifacts lost to history. The mysterious art collector Baron von Schickel coerces the pair into the mission.

Levels through time

The game has five levels, each set in a different historical era and built around finding and retrieving a specific artifact. Each level has its own adventure, story and challenges:

• The Present: pull off a museum heist.
• The Last Ice Age: survive its harsh conditions.
• Ancient Egypt: free the slaves.
• The Roman Empire: fight as a gladiator in the colosseum.
• Albion: join King Arthur's quest to retrieve the holy grail.

Combat and time

You fight both in the 2D plane along your path and by aiming FPS-style into the background. Plane combat includes shooting enemies with a bow and attacking them with melee weapons; in-depth combat lets you shoot enemies who shoot back or charge with swords. You can also take modern tools and weapons into the past, or manipulate time to time attacks and movements precisely and jump back to try again after a mistake.

Puzzles and exploration

You interact with the environment to solve puzzles and fight enemies. Puzzles and challenges can have many solutions, while concealed or guarded artifacts can grant special abilities. Hidden interactions, mysteries and dungeons lead to treasures, and collecting time coins unlocks special talents.

The lair and talents

Between levels, you can use a lair as a staging area and display the artifacts you have found. From there, you can continue to the next level or return to look for missed artifacts and unsolved mysteries. Three talent trees offer game-changing abilities for different playstyles, and you can bring a drone controlled by Bob to help with artifact hunting and artillery support.

Replay and scores

An online leaderboard tracks level completion times and deaths. Levels offer more to find, solve and collect as you pursue new scores.
