CHRONOS TWINS – THE FACTS!
Video, features and fact sheet for time-travelling adventurers
18th September 2007: Northamptonshire, UK: Interweaving time travel and retro side-scrolling action with dual-screen play, Oxygen Games latest Nintendo DS title offers players a colourful and vibrant setting in which to save the world of Skyla from certain destruction.
Playing as Nec, the object of Chronos Twins is to travel back in time to foil the intentions of the nameless horror that threatens to destroy his world in the present. This is accomplished by playing across the two screens, completing puzzles and moving or destroying things in the past (lower screen) to alter the present (upper screen). Once the basics have been learned, the game becomes increasingly challenging as the two screens merge into one; although later challenges require the player to separate time again.
Oxygen Games is pleased to be able to offer a video for media use, which can be downloaded from;
