    “indulge” is a great word here, I think that’s a word I had trouble finding to describe this- it’s very indulgent. For me, there’s something about the simplicity of the time traveling mechanic that hits the right notes. :::spoiler Slight spoilers? Time traveling is just “inverting” in time, and there are no flashy special effects for the actual inversion, just walking through the “turnstile”. When the protagonist steps out into the world after being inverted, the sense of familiarity combined with the eerie sense of something being off (everything moving backwards, haha) just struck a nerve for me, it felt so visceral :::
