Max could rewind almost anything. On the rooftop, she couldn't. All she had was listening.
Who it's for
Photography student Max discovers she can rewind time and uses it to protect her rediscovered friend Chloe and her classmates, which turns a very human wish (to take back what we said or did) into a mechanic players can test and then outgrow.
