Timequest

Timequest is a time-travel adventure in which history itself becomes your playground, provided you are willing to accept the considerable responsibility of not accidentally destroying civilization. Players travel to different historical periods, interact with famous figures and attempt to solve problems by manipulating events. The clever part is that actions in one era can affect another, creating a web of cause and effect that rewards experimentation and careful thinking. It is an adventure built more around ideas than reflexes, and the writing gives the historical settings plenty of personality. Of course, time travel means that one small mistake can have enormous consequences, which makes the game's puzzles both satisfying and occasionally infuriating. Timequest is a particularly enjoyable choice for fans of historical fiction and classic adventures. It essentially asks you to become a temporal detective, except the evidence is several centuries old and your mistakes may rewrite the entire timeline.
