I love retro action-adventure games. I love when they are difficult and demand a real degree of mastery. However, "Where Time Stood Still" was mostly a frustrating experience. I truly wanted to love this game. I wanted to figure it out. But the more I played, the more I realized its gameplay is an unbalanced, maddening mess. It pains me to admit this, because there is a rough gem buried within. The player commands four plane-crash survivors, one at a time, stranded in a hostile environment somewhere in the Himalayas.

About This Game
Your plane has ditched on a mountain plateau somewhere in deepest Tibet. You and your companions are alive, but recovery from the impact is short lived; a large shape is moving towards you. As it gets closer you rub your eyes in disbelief: a Dinosaur! Where are you?... and when? Now learn to survive in a world untouched by modern life; a world frozen in time.
Hazards to be faced include the aforementioned dinosaurs and cavemen, as well as sea monsters, precarious mountainous ledges and dilapidated bridges. Objects including weapons and first aid kits can be collected. Each character has his own distinct behaviors - one becomes hungry easily, while another is only really competent while his fiancée survives. Although the ultimate aim is to save all four characters, you can continue while at least one is alive.
