Professor Archibald, your guide through history
To accompany you in this great temporal adventure, you will be guided by Professor Archibald, a passionate history with well-cut mustache and humor sometimes... Off schedule.
Always ready to encourage, he will explain the rules of the game, give you advice, and accompany during tutorials and major stages of progress.
Archibald intervenes in the levels to help understand the mechanics of boosters, congratulate you, or give you clues to find the right date.
