Tool or Utility for Recreating SQL Server Activity

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a tool, utility or some built in functionality to recreate or "replay" server activity from the logs so that you could go back to a point in time and identify something that executed just before system degradation or a failure took place? Perhaps something complimentary to Solar Winds in which you could review activity over a specific time period (like replaying a trace, but not necessarily that gui...)

Thanks in advance for any information!
