Yeah, I’m a collector, and you’d think I would have learned by now that everything can be collected post game. If you happen upon something, cool. But there’s no real need to spend 3 hours thoroughly checking every corner.

But god damn it, I know I’ll do it anyways.

Shadow is the last one I need to finish in this series.

I got burnt out because I 100% the first one, and like 90% the second one in like a few months. Started the third and realized I needed a break from the genre.

Five Nights at Freddy’s movie novelization comes out next month.

I’ve read all the Star Wars movie novelizations.

I remember my first movie novelization though… Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey.

Man, I loved Peggle. I loved Plants Vs Zombies.

Popcap did not need their own time slot at E3.

This was the answer I was going to have, and believe I have made this answer many times in the past. I was working at Gamestop at the time, and was able to borrow it.

I beat it the same night, as it is a really short game. But by far one of the worst I’ve ever played. I had super high hopes because the trailer made it look like a really cool game.

I got into a streak of time travel books because of A Gift of Time.

I also recommend The Outcasts of Time by Ian Mortimer. It’s about two brothers in the 1300’s at the height of the Black Plague. Death comes to them and tells them, they can either continue on their lives and die in a few days, or they can live their remaining few days, but wake up each day 100 years into the future for each waking.

It has a lot of religious stuff, which even as someone that isn’t religious, I didn’t find to be too much. It was one person firm in his beliefs talking about them with someone that was of the same faith, so it didn’t feel preachy or like it was trying to convert me or overwhelm me.

But it was a really good story.

A Gift of Time by Jerry Merritt is about an old man at the end of his life that has a space alien crash land on his property. He assists her in repairing her ship, which as it turns out travels through time and space. As a reward for his assistance, he is allowed to ask for one gift. He has his current mind placed into his childhood body, so that he can be there to rescue his little brother that was kidnapped that Summer.

It’s a really good book in my opinion.

​

Although not exactly time travel, a similar concept is The First 15 Lives of Harry August by Claire North. It’s about a man who is effectively immortal. He dies and is immediately brought back to the beginning of his life. His conscious memory of his previous lives comes back when a child begins to have self-consciousness at around 3 years old.

Really interesting Time Loop type story.

It was pitched as the uncensored version and we ended up with a much more censored version. That’s the main thing that got to me. If you 100% the game you could unlock uncensored audio in the multiplayer which was not fun on the Xbox version.

I wanted to look back, but those steps sounded so close, I had to refuse and keep running.

You can buy a hardcover physical copy.

When I first saw ads for it, I assumed it would be a lesser clone of the 2008 version of Alone in the Dark.

Turns out, it was a much superior clone to 2008’s Alone in the Dark.
