Ratchet and Clank: A Crack In Time for PS3 It can feel a little arbitrary, but the logic puzzle-solving elements are satisfying enough. There are also temporal recording platforms essentially a macro function, where you can record an action, such as pressing a button to open a door, and then play it back to allow you to pass through. Messing with time is one of the central mechanics: you can lob time-grenades which slow down time within a certain field, allowing you to jump across falling platforms, run across swiftly spinning surfaces, or dodge bullets.

F rom the beginning of the lovingly-rendered intro, there is something that feels a little plagiarised in the storytelling of Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time.
