Also known as
Future Wars: Time Travellers Future Wars: Toki no Bōkensha Les Voyageurs du Temps: La Menace フューチャーウォーズ 時の冒険者

This point-and-click adventure challenges you to find hidden objects across time to stop an alien invasion.

Future Wars: Adventures in Time was developed by Delphine Software and first released for Amiga and Atari ST in 1989; the DOS version was also released in 1989, not 1990.

About Future Wars: Adventures in Time

Future Wars: Adventures in Time is a graphic adventure where a window cleaner in 1989 stumbles upon a time machine. This discovery propels him across history, from the 14th century to the 44th century and the Cretaceous period, to confront an alien invasion he uncovers.

The game utilizes a point-and-click interface where interactions are managed through a verb menu. Player progression follows a linear narrative, and the experience can be challenging due to items that are difficult to find and scenarios where failure is permanent. Objects in the environment often require specific positioning to be located and examined.
