The Time Tunnel: American History Edition

The Time Tunnel: American History Series is an educational game for the Apple II.

The player is thrust through the time tunnel, and only the The Tunnel Master knows where the player will emerge. The player comes face to face with a famous American. The famous person can not see you, but you must observe your surroundings and listen to clues to determine the identity of the famous individual.

As the player asks questions, they gain Investigation Points. One point for a clue and two points if asking for a direct hint from the Tunnel Master. The player gains 5 points if they incorrectly identify the famous person, and a total of 15 points if they give up. The goal is to keep the score to a minimum.

There are two levels of difficulty. On the higher levels, the clues are more vague, and players must provide the first and last names of the person in question.
