Odyssey in Time

Odyssey in Time is a 1-player text-based RPG for multiple systems.

An advanced version of Time Traveler, featuring additional time zones and a save/restore feature.

The player must travel through and explore different historical conflicts to recover the stolen rings to confront their adversary. There are a total of 24 different time zones, ranging from Egypt 1300 BC to Germany in 1942. Upon entering each time zone, the player must choose between the two sides of the conflict, which affects their relationship with the ruling power.

The player enters each zone with 1000 gold pieces and with allies or weapons. In each time zone, they explore a 5 x 5 area that contains houses, docks, a market, fields, a prison, and the palace of the ruling lord. In each zone the player can search for gold, weapons, or treasure. The player can also find local peasants, who can be persuaded to join your army. The player can be attacked by the local guards, and victory probability is based upon allies and weapons. Guards outside of buildings can be fought or bribed.

The goal for each time zone is to locate the hidden ring and defeat the local lord.

The player selects a difficulty from 1 - 7.
