Time Lord is a challenging action-platformer developed by Rare and released for the NES in 1990. With Earth facing destruction by the alien Drakkon in the year 2999, you are sent back through history to stop their invasion. You must battle through distinct time periodsโsuch as Medieval England, the Wild West, and World War IIโand collect five scattered orbs in each era to advance to the next before the timer runs out.
How to Play
Your objective is to find all five orbs in a level and defeat the era's boss to travel to the next time period. Use the Arrow keys to move your character, Z to jump, and X to attack. Enter pauses the game. You begin with basic melee attacks but can pick up and use era-specific weapons like swords and firearms to help you survive.
Tips
Be aware that some orbs only appear at specific moments on the countdown timer, so you will occasionally need to wait in certain spots for them to spawn. Also, try to save the limited ammunition of powerful ranged weapons for the boss fights, relying on your standard attacks for regular enemies.
