ABOUT THE REWINDER
The Rewinder is a 2D puzzle adventure inspired by traditional Chinese folklore. In the game, you will take on the role of the last Rewinder, Yun, who can travel back in time to explore the memories of vengeful spirits and alter the course of history so these souls are able to find peace and reincarnate.
Despite the War of the Great Gods ending, peace did not return to the world. It left death, grief, and wandering resentful spirits whose souls are no longer able to be reborn in new flesh bodies. The four deities, merciful as they were, stepped in and built a shrine to rewind time. When the shrine rises, the Spirit Wardens would call on the Rewinder to return to the past and rewrite the future. As perils from the evil spirits subside, a new world of danger slowly emerges…
