The Time Keepers - Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack In Time #1 (PS3, 2009)

Finally, we're backtracking to where we left off on the Ratchet and Clank: Future Saga. I skipped a lot of games running straight to Rift Apart since I got my PS5 that time and I wanted to play that console. Hah. Anyway lemme begin by summarizing the story so far: In Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, Ratchet and Clank were just minding their own business when Emperor Tachyon went in and tried to kill them. Our heroes went through several planets, first running away and then discovering a MacGuffin called the Lombax Secret. Then they went through more planets, finding the Lombax Secret which was apparently a Dimensionator. A device that can transport anyone and anything across dimensions. The Dimensionator was once used to exile the Cragmites, and Tachyon wants this reversed which is why he was searching for it too. Then, it was revealed near the end of the game that the Lombaxes once used the Dimensionator to exile themselves from the universe and Ratchet was given the chance to escape there, but he declined and then fought Tachyon until he got sucked away by a dimensional rift. At the end of the game, the cragmites were all exiled saving this universe, then the Dimensionator got broken. However, the Zoni, the mysterious small critters who have been appearing in Clank's visions and giving him help throughout the game, suddenly appear and take Clank away to a far away place unknown to anyone. End of game, Roll Credits. In the second, short game called Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest For Booty, it shows Ratchet going through planet Merdegraw in a quest to find where Clank was taken to. Basically involves helping the locals, shoot the pirates, accidentally revive some robo-ghost thanks to a cursed MacGuffin, then destroy the robo ghost to find some map to where Clank was taken to. End of that game, roll credits. xD Finally, we come here, to A Crack In Time. Clank was taken to a mysterious place in the center of the universe. Ratchet is heading towards here too, and soon we might have a time-bending adventure that hopefully won't cause my PS3 to explode because this console is very old.
