Induction isn't the first game to play with the concept of time loops, but it may the one that portrays the idea in all its complexities. In other games, usually "time loop" means restarting the level along a copy of your past self. In Induction, time loop means multiple time lines happening simultaneously while you interact with and alter the actions of your past and future selves to your advantage.
