Times of Lore is a top-down action RPG released for the NES in 1991. You take on the role of an adventurer seeking to save a troubled kingdom through real-time combat, open-ended exploration, and gathering clues from the locals, standing out from the turn-based games of its era.
How to play
Explore the realm, speak with NPCs to progress your quest, and battle enemies in real-time. The NES controls are mapped to your keyboard: use the arrow keys to move, Z for the B button (attack), X for the A button (interact/confirm), and Enter for Start (pause and inventory).
Tips
- Pay close attention to what NPCs say, as they provide vital clues and directions that are not recorded in a quest log.
- Use the environment to your advantage during combat by funneling enemies through narrow passages to avoid being surrounded.
