How to Get the Time Stone in Thanos Simulator: Complete Beginner's Walkthrough
By Alexander Ross
Walk up to the green relic and press your interaction key (default [E] on PC, tap the icon on mobile). The game plays a socketing animation that inserts the gem into the thumb position of your Infinity Gauntlet upgrade.
The Time Stone introduces two active abilities to your loadout:
Pressing your primary stone keybind activates Chronal Halt. This freezes all opposing players and hostile NPCs within a 20-stud radius for 3.5 seconds. Frozen targets cannot dodge, block, or trigger consumable buffs.
Pressing the secondary stone keybind casts Rewind. This skill instantly teleports your avatar to where you stood 4 seconds prior, restoring any health lost during that brief window.
Both skills share a substantial gem cooldown timer of 25 seconds. Do not burn the freeze haphazardly against low-level targets. Save it to interrupt high-damage enemy combos or lock down mobile runners attempting to retreat from the capture point.
