How long Another Eden Begins takes depends on whether you stop at the first ending or continue into character quests and New Game+. The publisher does not promise a universal completion time. Plan by milestones rather than a single number of hours: first-story clear, optional character stories, then a second run for alternate endings.
The first story clear
The official game site describes a time-traveling, command-battle RPG spanning antiquity, the present, and the future. Its principal story follows Aldo and Feinne. If you want that story first, follow the main objective and use the allies and abilities available along the way. Exploration can wait for a slower run.
The RPG Site firsthand walkthrough documents the campaign chapter by chapter, including optional encounters, cats, and companion events. Its scope shows why a thorough playthrough differs from a story-focused one; it is a route reference, not a universal hour estimate.
Optional character stories
Encounter quests add allies; character and kinship quests add their personal stories. The publisher distinguishes these quest types on its official site. Recruit allies as their encounters unlock, put them in an active or Another Party, and revisit quest markers between chapters if you want this content. The walkthrough identifies when individual events become available.
New Game+ and endings
After clearing the main story, New Game+ lets you begin again with your developed characters. The publisher advertises more than ten endings based on actions and choices; it does not give a fixed duration for seeing every route. Plan a second run if you want those outcomes rather than assuming the first credits screen represents all the story content. See our New Game+ guide.
| Goal | Include | Stop when |
|---|---|---|
| Main story | Follow principal quests | First story clear |
| Broader first run | Add encounter, character, and kinship quests | Your preferred optional quests are done |
| Ending exploration | Continue through New Game+ and vary choices | The outcomes you want are seen |
| Achievements | Check the live Steam achievements | Your chosen target is met |
Dialogue reading, difficulty, detours, and battle retries all affect the time needed. New players can begin with the free demo; official demo instructions explain its scope and save transfer.
FAQ
Does the first clear include every ending?
No. The publisher places additional outcomes in New Game+ after the first main-story clear.
Is this the entire mobile game's story?
No. Begins is a standalone adaptation of the opening story, not an archive of every later update to Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space.
