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!

It's always nice to see a good old game. Thank you GOG!

I've just looked at its Mobygames page, and I noticed that the reviews there are not very favorable to the game ("Good graphics, not much of a game, horrible gameplay" etc.). And in Computer Gaming World's November 1996 issue (15th anniversary issue) this game is voted as #43 Worst Game of All Time!!

I remember playing this game on my old Mac LC I, one of my very first CD-ROM game. Wow, time flies...

Good release GOG !

Time, a temple, the usage of the Three Dragonscales emblem and it's not Ocarina of Time. Colour me confused.

glad to see wishlist is not a prerequirement for classics to get here. I prefer underrated releases :)

Well, this seems to have landed here out of the blue - nice!

It vaguely rings a bell, but need to do some digging to pinpoint it.

Hmm. Mobygames lists the original publisher as EA (although I'd missed it from my list of un-GOG'd EA games)
This seems to be a Windows remake though, maybe of a DOS version that apparently existed or maybe they've gone back to the Amiga version again
Wonder if EA are still getting a slice behind the scenes though, after SIM City 4 last week...

Good to see that gOg have dropped both Wishlist and Moby score requirements TeT stated as a reason why the classics well was drying up :)

It is an interesting game in its own rights, but not to be good, to be honest. A bit illogical, a bit boring, not really much of a game. Nice to look at, though, looked great on the Amiga CD32.

holy shit, I think I remember seeing this ages ago on a friends PC

nice to have it here

Nice to see this on GOG, rather difficult, sometimes frustrating game. Wish it hadn't been so long since I played it, so I'd be more confident to write a review. It gets easier as you play but likely most people will have to start the game from scratch, at least once. Some of the puzzles are illogical or the logic is so hard to figure out they seem illogical.
Overall, if you make your way through this mind bending, time bending maze you'll probably have a sense of accomplishment for having done the near impossible :)

Interesting! I guess that fits the Enigmatic hint. Hopefully it's a good old game.

I too am hoping GOG still doesn't miss out on Z, though. (wanting to see that "completed" and hopefully arrive before it does on Steam :) Perhaps it will appear on Thurs.

Your comment on illogical puzzles, and the fact it does come with an adventures guide make me feel this is one of those games you play with the walkthrough just to your left.
