Our Expert Score

86/100

Crushed In Time is a brilliant brain teaser that makes you feel like a temporal detective. The concept of changing things in the past and instantly seeing how it restructures future environments never stops feeling magical.

The puzzle design is clever without feeling frustratingly obscure, and traveling across different historical eras keeps the visual variety high. If you love time-travel tropes and solid puzzle logic, this game will keep you hooked for hours.

My review in my opinion
Thu Oct 22 2026 Blue_Lightning_two

Draw me a pixel have out done them selves. I enjoyed playing Crushed in time. Even though I haven’t played There is no game wrong diminished for myself, but have seen and watch other gamers and YouTube’s play it and it’s by far my favorite game, apart from Minecraft, a long with your new one here. I didn’t like how the app was free, but the rest of the game needed to be paid for, Minecraft story mode on the phone was my first experience to that. However, the experience and play through was worth it. I hope and can’t wait to see what Draw me a pixel’s next game will be because it’s creative, fun and brilliant.

Great game but one thing

I like this game. I was excited to see that it was ready to play last night. I played it today and it’s good. It’s a good game. After I tried it out, I immediately bought the full game i’ve been waiting a very long time for this game but one thing, can you make accessibility, a option in the settings, because with the swirling tunnel like funnel like two thing, the menu has and I am at the part where they’re there in the tube trying to stop Eric(or whatever his name was) and Miss Files because I am sensitive to motion and can you make it so like at that part or the menu it pauses and be like a stop motion kind of thing every 50 seconds there’s a new frame and when you are catch in pulling a piece of the game menu and when you let go, it shivers the screen, I don’t like that, and the screen shakes, I don’t like that. I don’t know if it’s possible. You can change all of this, but please reply. only four stars for this review because I am still trying this game

An absolute blast!

Absolutely loved Crushed in Time! 😂❤️ The story, humor, stretching mechanics and controls made the whole experience so much fun. And seeing Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson again after loving them in There Is No Game was such a treat! It’s genuinely exciting to experience a whole new story with these characters. Clever, hilarious, and incredibly fun — I just wish there was more 🎮❤️

Impossible to beat without cheating
Fri Oct 30 2026 Janjanjansat

Whenever I finish the eight bit section. The game is bugged. Dr. Wason. is in the car. Sherlock Holmes is not there. Emma is grabbing an invisible steering wheel, and Emmett works fine, but the problem is I’m stuck in the cut scene so I can’t do anything so I have to cheat. whenever going to the countryside I select London to skip chapter 3 to chapter 9, then I complete the game and select each chapter except the third one because that one’s bug. but this game is really great, but if this one bug is fixed, then I would give it a five star.

Too many bugs
Sat Oct 31 2026 There is no game lover

I like the last game from the developer, very innovative and fun so I do not hesitate to buy the full game since I trust the quality. However, this time there seems to be many unexpected bugs preventing me from enjoying the game. For example, when I start the game first time, I got stuck in chapter 1 after cleaning the block. The car just simply cannot start. Then I restart the game, and this time, I encountered a bug even before reaching to that point. I simply cannot get Holmes and waston out of car. Please help fix these and I really believe the game would be awesome! Thank you!

Satisfying
Fri Oct 23 2026 muddrose22

The game was really fun, the only reasons that I give it a 4 star and not a five star is because in chapter 4 i was experiencing a bug that I couldn’t fix for 3 days And the ending seemed a bit abrupt, like they ran out of TIME making the ending, get it? That aside though, the story was really interesting, the characters had cool moments, and the controls and mechanics are easy to get used to (because there is no other controls other than pick up, drag, and spin).

Very very good game just one question
Tue Oct 27 2026 Chronic online

I’ll try not to spoil anyone who has an played the game before you get the final badge the DXM he chooses to take one down, but couldn’t he have just put one to the other that just might be me nitpicking though, oh and play their other games as well from what I know they’re good

Bug

The game is amazing but when I get to the beginning of Chapter 4, it looks to be a cut scene plays showing Sherlock but Sherlock doesn’t appear for me. I can still interact with everything it’s just he isn’t there. Besides that, the game is really getting my brain moving! For me, it’s very tricky but definitely solvable.
