The player assumes the role of Kelvin – a young assistant of dr. Edwin Lupin, who is both a physicist and an avid inventor. When the work of Lupin's life – a time machine having the shape of a shower cabin is being laughed at loudly, dr. Lupin goes insane and an absurd vengeance plan is born in his mind. He decides to travel back in time using his machine, in order to prevent the world's greatest inventors from achieving their goals. Dr. Lupin wants to finish their works and become the one considered the actual inventor. When the history of the world begins to change as a result of dr. Lupin's actions, Kelvin and his friend Lise travel in time after the crazy scientist to make his wrongdoing futile.

The player meets 56 NPCs in total and converses with them on story-related topics – the game has over a thousand dialogue lines. Throughout his adventure, Kelvin travels first to the times of Ludwig van Beethoven, then to the period of Isaac Newton, and finally to when Leonardo da Vinci was making history. The protagonist's goal is to thwart dr. Lupin's wrongdoing and to help both artists and invenotors in completing the works of their lives.

Kelvin and the Infamous Machine is a fresh take on time travel, with a diverse cast of characters thrust into hilarious scenarios. The puzzles aren’t so difficult that they’re maddening, but just enough to feel rewarding when it all clicks into place. You’ll be laughing out loud or scratching your head, but you won’t ever be bored.
High-Def Digest: 4 / 5 by Levi van Tine
'Kelvin and the Infamous Machine' is a fitting tribute to the golden days of point-and-click gaming. What it lacks in length it makes up for in heart and dad jokes galore. If you yearn for a good adventure and have a few hours to spare, it won't disappoint.
