There must be some kind of way out of here.

The Labyrinth of Time, a classic puzzle-adventure game taking you through lots of twisted historical settings, is available on GOG.com, for only $5.99.

[url=http://www.gog.com/game/labyrinth_of_time_the][/url]The legendary King Minos has commissioned a labyrinth bridging time and space. The Labyrinth of Time. Once completed, this labyrinth, with doorways into all eras of history, will allow Minos to rule the Earth. You have been chosen as hero. Abruptly lifted from your routine existence, you have been dropped into a realm where time and space hang in check. Through exploration and puzzle solving, you must overcome the awesome power of Minos and destroy the labyrinth by manipulating the very fabric of history. Beware - the future may not unfold in quite the way you have planned.

There's over 270 intriguing locations for you to discover in the mysterious twisted depths of The Labyrinth of Time, for only $5.99 on GOG.com!

Oh, this is a good one and a neat piece of gaming history. One of the first games on CD-ROM and a fun one at that.

Thanks for this.

This is one of my all-time favorite games (does the avatar give it away?), and I'm so psyched to see that this made it to GoG! If you enjoy adventure games for the exploration and atmosphere, I highly recommend it. Gameplay-wise, it's a pretty standard first-person adventure game in the vein of Myst and The Journeyman Project, but it has loads of character and astounding visuals.

Another game. How about QuickBooks 1998 already? Geez...

(wishlisted!)

Wow
When my friend first introduced me to GOG I think this was the first game that I searched for. I remember Labyrinth of Time from the bundle of games that my parents bought for our very first family computer. Many fond memories of this one...

I hope more people will get a chance to play it now. If you like spooky soundtracks, puzzles, mazes, and mysterious documents I highly recommend it!

Thanks GOG!

I have a couple boxed copies of this game.

I did not get very far playing this game, but from what I little I did see, I liked a lot.
It looked like it had a lot of atmosphere, which is one of the things I like so much about these type of adventure games.

I gave up on it for some reason, I don't recall why.

Update:
I just tried installing it from my CD ROM.

I can hear sound, but there is no video. It just starts with a blank black screen, which eventually changes to a blank gray screen.
All through this, I can hear the music playing.

Update:
I just tried it in DOSBox.
It seems to work fine with that.

Also, the CD Rom version constantly tries to access the CD, and every time it does it, it has a slight but annoying delay.

Copying everything from the Labyrinth CD, to a folder in the C:\ drive, and running it directly from the C:\ drive made it run smooth.

The Overview description seems too be an exact copy from AdventureGamers.com

Oh Wow! Of all the old funky adventures, I didn't expect this one to see the light of day again

I got this game with my first cd-rom! Kinda nonsensical, but I really enjoyed playing it back in the early 90's

It really is a giant labyrinth...the whole game. Its one giant maze. Hard not to get lost after awhile, but the graphics were nice for the time. I enjoyed it until I got tired of back-tracking endlessly, try to work out what I'd missed. Turned out I was close to the end there.

Hey, look out for the clowns, folks!
(Seriously, those clowns were really creepy)
