In 'Chrono Chum', players take on the role of Max, an unassuming office worker who stumbles upon a time-traveling device while cleaning out a forgotten storage closet. Instead of typical time travel quests, Max finds himself navigating the absurdities of time's effects on social relationships, such as dining with historical figures, debating philosophy with AI from the future, and attending outrageous parties in alternate timelines. Each choice influences history and Max's friendships, offering various comedic outcomes and dramatic confrontations with the friends he meets along the way as they face hilarious time-bending dilemmas.
