Let's Bend Time
In the game, the power to bend time is given to players by the God Thoth. This rather interesting mechanic adds to the game that extra layer of strategy and challenge. You see in the game, there are some dangerous combat encounters along with tricky traps. As a result, the studio shared in a post that it felt natural to give players the ability "to slow down the action."
While time bending can have an impact on the character, it seems that the impact has been lowered significantly. The effect can even be minimized further by investing in specific perks as well as skill attributes. This should create that contrast between the speed of the character's speed and the slowed-down environment.
To activate this ability, players need to have Time Essence, which can be replenished through combat. Ultimately, time-bending offers players a versatile tool that they can use to overcome those obstacles.
The Book of Aaru is an action rogue-lite game that features ancient Egyptian mythology and combines it with advanced futuristic technology. It invites players to go on an exhilarating journey that’s chock-full of surprises hidden around every corner. While the game has been veiled within an overlay of a richly designed Egyptian setting, it offers an intense yet rewarding gamified experience.
The Book of Aaru is designed with an isometric perspective and encourages fast-paced, tactical action amidst the different scenic traps. The game fosters a certain sense of variability with each run since players encounter different environmental settings due to the randomly assembled levels.
