Gameplay
The game allowed players to travel through time and across the globe solving puzzles while meeting famous historical figures such as Benjamin Franklin, Cleopatra and Julius Caesar.
Time Zone used the same game engine as Wizard and the Princess, which had static pictures and a text parser that understood two word commands. Roberta Williams did all the design and scripting herself, a process that took six months, and the game as a whole (design, graphics, and programming) was in development for an entire year.
