Time Fcuk - Time Waster

Time Fcuk might have been better named if the word "time" in its title was swapped for the word "mind". In the game you play the part of a cute little robot-like creature, who is contacted by yourself from 20 minutes in the future. You are told to get into a box, and from there you enter a world of strange puzzle rooms, where there is always a secondary dimension to the room. You can toggle between dimensions, and doing so can change the structure of the room, as well as the objects within it that you can interact with.
While you're busy trying to figure out how to exit each room, "future you" continues to talk to you, and it's creepy. The voice is a little disturbing, but it's what "future you" says that makes things seem weird. He becomes distrustful of you, and talks of being stuck in a room with hundreds of bodies. Like I said, creepy.
The puzzles are challenging and fun to think through, and the game has virtually limitless replay value because it has a level creation mode where anyone can create and submit levels. The game can then generate a virtually limitless number of iterations based on user-submitted levels, which are ranked in order of difficulty. Very clever.
Time Fcuk may well eat up a bunch of your time, and if you're not careful it might just leave you fcuked.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
