Time flows forward for everyone else. For Leo, it just started running backward. Ten-year-old Leo loves spending Saturdays in his Grandpa Beno's workshop, a dusty basement filled with cuckoo clocks and half-finished inventions. But when Leo discovers a strange, humming pocket watch hidden behind the furnace, he makes a mistake that changes everything: he winds it. In a flash of blue light, Leo and Grandpa are pulled into the Backward World-a surreal dimension where waterfalls flow upward into the clouds, trees grow down from the sky, and broken objects spontaneously fix themselves.

Time flows forward for everyone else. For Leo, it just started running backward. Ten-year-old Leo loves spending Saturdays in his Grandpa Beno's workshop, a dusty basement filled with cuckoo clocks and half-finished inventions. But when Leo discovers a strange, humming pocket watch hidden behind the furnace, he makes a mistake that changes everything: he winds it. In a flash of blue light, Leo and Grandpa are pulled into the Backward World-a surreal dimension where waterfalls flow upward into the clouds, trees grow down from the sky, and broken objects spontaneously fix themselves. But this world isn't just a playground of impossible physics. It is a trap. In the Backward World, time flows in reverse. For Grandpa Beno, this is a miracle-he feels younger and stronger with every passing hour. But for Leo, it is a death sentence. If he stays too long, he will "un-grow" from a boy to a toddler, eventually vanishing from existence entirely. Hunted by The Shadow-a terrifying entity made of static that wants to freeze the universe in a permanent moment-Leo and Grandpa must embark on a desperate journey to the Great Mainspring. To survive, Leo must master gravity-defying "Anchor Boots," outsmart mechanical beasts, and learn the truth about his grandfather's secret past as a legendary adventurer. From the dangerous currents of the Time River to the chaotic ticking of the Puzzle Tower, Leo discovers that saving the world requires more than just magic-it takes the courage to move forward when everything else is pulling you back.
