Breakpoints are a tool to stop execution and land in the present. It's the debugger that decides where you can go from there. Typically they'll allow you to go into the past, but only to inspect the stack frames, because the values on the heap get overwritten. I vaguely remember that some debuggers are able to record heap writes and thus are able to show the entire state of the app at each frame, effectively "going back" and replaying stack frames. My guess is that Replay does something similar.
