    Game Description

    How would you command your forces if you stood outside of time? Send your units forward and backward through time to the very moment when they're needed most? Double your forces by sending them back to fight side by side with their past selves? Would you execute a feint by executing an attack on their resources, and then change your original orders to target their production facilities? Or would you go deeper...

    Achron is the world's first meta-time strategy game, allowing you to dynamically alter your past and future actions, send your units back and forth through time, even engineer temporal paradoxes that work to your advantage. Play through four single player campaigns and go online to face off against your friends while freely moving up and down the timeline!

    • Send your forces forward and backward through time
    • Up to 15 simultaneous players in a single game

    Critic Reviews

    IGN Review (5.0 out of 10)

    It's awesome when game developers seek to buck the status quo and innovate with unusual ideas that are both exciting and a little out there. But cool concepts don't amount to much when they're shoehorned into a lackluster game. Achron is perfect example of a great gaming idea sunk by poor execution....more
