They are very important in the game. Thanks to them you will solve most of the puzzles and you will discover most of the passages. To be able to control the time you need to have a charged Power cells bar. Time can be undone with the R key. However, it is enough to hold the G key for a while, and the time will be completely in place.
Rewinding Time
Undoing time is a very useful skill in the game. Thanks to it, you can get an item destroyed just before, re-fight with opponents or save yourself from death. Remember, however, that if you fall back, reversing time won't work. To rewind time you have to hold down the R button. Thanks to that, the game will go back a few precious seconds. An important piece of information is also that your character will also be moved to an earlier position.
If you press the R key instead of holding down, you will set the place to which you will go back the next time you press the button. Thanks to this you can set points to which you want to go back and make it easier to move around. All you need to do is set a point on the button that brings the platform up. Thanks to this the platform will come to the designated place, and you will be able to enter it in peace.
Stopping time
Stopping time is a skill that you will use most often in the whole game. Thanks to it you will be able to run most of the passages and puzzles. To stop the time, just hold down the G key. Then the game will change its color and become black and white. Stopping the time will continue until you release the G button or until you run out of Power cells points.
