Overview: You play a detective who receives a call from a famous, but reclusive author who needs you to find his manuscripts. However, things are never so easy, care for a little time travel?

How to Play: This is a sort of adventure game and hidden object together. You will need to find objects to solve puzzles in a particular order to progress from area to area.

• In the Hidden Object areas or Chapters , instead of finding objects, you must place objects or use objects in the correct place and order.
• Some items will remained "locked" until you perform some other actions, I have noted these in the chapters listed below.
• If there are two numbers in one spot, it means you must use one item (as numbered) before you can use the other.

Portraits: After you solve a chapter, you will get an emblem. These will be used later in portraits scattered about to solve riddles. While the emblems must go in the correct portrait, they do not have to be inserted in any particular order.

Hints: The orb you find at the beginning gives you unlimited hints but it must charge first. To speed up the charging process you will need to find two hidden E cards in each level. Clicking them will give you an instant hint.

• I have circled the cards I could find in yellow (I could not find them all).
• You need to click the item and then click the orb.
• If you aren't sure where to go next, pick up an item and click the orb and it will give you a hint as to wear to use the item.

Journal: If you click on the book in the lower, right corner you will see all the chapters that you have completed and must complete. There are 42 chapters!
