In Cinderella and the Time Clock, Cinderella is no ordinary girl. After discovering a magical clock in her late father's workshop, she unlocks the ability to control time itself. Guided by the Time Fairy, she embarks on a journey to uncover the secrets of her father's disappearance and attend the royal ball, where she meets a prince who shares her passion for magic and science.
