"When we're both gazing at the stars, I might be looking into your eyes." – Aliya Aliya: Timelink is a simple yet beautiful game that quietly pulls you in. The first ending hit me harder than I expected, to the point that I want to explore other endings immediately and change her fate . One of the coolest things is how it feels like you're really talking to someone, like you feel connected with Aliya. Sure, it has its flaws, but the heart of the game shines through. It’s emotional, personal, and full of potential. I’m genuinely looking forward to future updates. 9/10

For a game with as simple an interface as this one, it shouldn't hit as hard as it did . . . and yet it still does. From something as urgent as having to direct your companion's life while it hangs by a thread, to something as mundane as an idle chat by the fireplace in an unfamiliar planet, even if all you did was merely sending texts and conversations back-and-forth with her, the stories are still able to grow your attachment to her. Even if both of you were separated by a thousand years, the thousand light-years distance means both of you could've stared towards each other all those times. The game is truly worth it. Enjoy this story, and you might yearn for your girlfriend from a thousand years in the future way more than you expected .

A very unique experience. You essentially play as an operator trying to help a girl stranded in space. The storyline can get quite emotional and dark at times. The music is also pretty good and fitting to the setting and type of game. Overall, Aliya was a lot more engaging than I expected it to be and for the very low price of 3 euro, I would highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of visual novels or sci-fi. I have only two real points of critique: First is that most endings, with the exception of 1 and 5, (respectively the 'bittersweet ending' and the 'best ending') are very short and tend to feel a bit lacklustre. Also, there are a lot of typo's and grammer mistakes in the English translation. Not so many that it ruins to experience, but there is enough of it to become a point of nuisance. I would recommend the developers to have an english writer or at least native english speaker to proofread it.

The game is a nice, casual interactive fiction that I'd like to see more of, especially with this format. Though some may view the real-time synchronization as a hassle, I find that its one of the more necessary components in a game that fleshes out the story. it gives the story weight, something for the player to have in their heads as they await the next message or what is beyond the door. After finishing the game once, I've played again and found the game even more endearing. I recall reading a view here about grammar and such for their translation, however I see not much of a big deal unless you were expecting peer-reviewed scientific essay level grammar. The writing does more than enough good to push past small grammars. The game itself is easily at least a 8.5/10 in my book and would definitely recommend some people that are big in visual novels or interactive fiction to pick it up as I'd like for this game to become more popular after playing through it. Just don't mind the distance, even if it's a 1,000 light-years away.

This game made me cry The story is beautifully written. I was spending a lot of time with this one character, getting to know her. I got to know her struggles, what she liked, and a lot more. When I first played through, I wasn't too impressed that the game forces you to wait in order for this character to do whatever she needs done. However, I think this is done out of necessity. I think it helps to ground the story and the character, and to give her actions weight, as you sit there in anticipation. At the time of this writing, I've only beaten it once, and I'm excited to spend more time with Aliya.
