Improve
[edit]I plan to improve this article, but I plan to improve a number of articles and for at least some time yet am forced to be about as reliable in my editing as a three-legged ferret on amphetamines. So while I'm saning up, if you get the urge to do something perhaps involving nominations and deletion, it'd be appreciated if you took the matter up with me first. After all, what matters is what the article can become, and I have a few ideas for determining that. --Kizor 18:50, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
I added about 1/3 of the games from Board Game Geek with a time travel theme and time in their name. Unfortunately had an error while saving, and got logged out. At least the important data saved. I suppose at some point we'll need to decide on a consistant layout for the page: tables or bulleted lists.
Also, a number of game titles link to unrelated Wikipedia pages. I'm not sure of the Wikipedia etiquette. Do they need to be manually linked to a disambiguation page? That seems to be a bad idea, in case someone wants to make a page about the game title later. It would require manually fixing links. GeorgeHarnish (talk) 09:05, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
Steins;Gate
[edit]Kindly include Steins;Gate as a game that has Time Travel (Time Leap also) as its central theme. It is also an in-game mechanic, where you can trigger either a text message to send to the past, changing your current world line OR to time leap and send your memories back to the past.

What about Video Games with time travel as part of the GAME PLAY?
[edit]I can't see a single video/computer game that has time travel as part of its game play on this list, only when it's part of the story. What about games like blinx and braid (video game)? 83.250.143.43 (talk) 07:10, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Achron
[edit]Achron needs to be added to the list of games with timetravel as a gameplay element. I tried but didn't know how.Dalek9 (talk) 13:29, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
Assassin
[edit]Does this game actually exist? There seem to be links in the Board Games section that don't link to the game. If you see this message and you haven't heard of it either, could you delete it please? Thanks. 131.111.233.109 (talk) 15:55, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Found the game on BoardGameGeek, with screenshots. Published in 1972. GeorgeHarnish (talk) 21:58, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
Temporal
[edit]There is a game called temporal that needs to go in the gameplay section. It is similar to chronotron.Dalek9 (talk) 16:33, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Dirt 2
[edit]This game also needs to be added. Gameplay elements i think like Forza and Grid. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.225.86.245 (talk) 00:03, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
Journeyman Project
[edit]Can't believe that this series isn't in the article. 71.145.159.192 (talk) 05:15, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
- It is, just not added to the table yet. Someoneanother 20:35, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
red alert 2 expansion
[edit]in the first level the player travels through time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.75.209 (talk) 11:54, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Stuff Magazine link
[edit]I've flagged this link as "dead" because even the base URL won't resolve for me, let alone the specific URL for the article. And in any case, the date given (3/9/2003) suffers from a bad case of ambiguity; is it the date the article was published or the date it was retrieved, and is it the 3rd of September or the 9th of March? (This is the thing I find most annoying about web sites in general, that people forget that it's the World Wide Web, not the USA Web; if one must use numeric dates on the web, the only format that makes sense is International, hence the above date should have been 2003-09-03 or 2003-03-09 respectively.)
If anyone else finds that the link resolves for them, feel free to remove the tag; but as far as I know, my ISP (Hutchison Whampoa UK, trading as "Three") concern themselves only with providing internet access, and leave it to the individual as to what s/he does with it, without imposing any kind of blocking; which is the way it should be, as I've encountered some stupid false positives recently, including Wikipedia itself being regarded by T-Mobile UK as a porn site. — 188.28.160.191 (talk) 11:20, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
- A Google search has now confirmed that (1) the Stuff website has moved, from stuffmagazine.com to stuff.magazine.co.uk; and (2) the article linked has not been transferred to the present site (they probably figured that nobody wants to read a 2003 article any more). So I've removed this reference altogether. — 188.28.64.223 (talk) 11:34, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Radiant Historia
[edit]majority of the game relies on time manipulation, if anyone wants to add it to the list — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.207.10 (talk) 19:55, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
Mortal Kombat (2011)
[edit]Realizing the battle is lost, Raiden The God of Thunder sends a cryptic message to his past self, including the words "He Must Win", moments before Shao Kahn kills him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.96.244.104 (talk) 20:04, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

Cookie Run Ovenbreak (and Cookie Run Kingdom)
[edit]Hey, I’m new to editing Wikipedia and I was wondering if I could mention Cookie Run Ovenbreak and Cookie Run Kingdom here? Time travel is not one of the franchise’s main focuses, but it does have 4 characters that are related to time.
First, there’s Croissant Cookie, a member of the Time Balance Department who creates machines to “fix” timelines (essentially, if something in a timeline doesn’t follow actual events, ex. person goes left instead of right, she fixes it to follow what actually happened). Then there’s Timekeeper Cookie, Croissant Cookie from an alternate universe where she was given godlike powers over time. Next, there’s String Gummy Cookie, who comes from a ruined future where Croissant Cookie successfully built a device that could transport you to any timeline (I didn’t play much of that event, so I’m just taking a guess). Lastly, there’s Twizzly Gummy Cookie in Cookie Run Kingdom, who hops across timelines causing chaos. However, she isn’t in Cookie Run Ovenbreak, so I’m giving a separate section dedicated to her.
There have been two events in Ovenbreak relating to time so far- Operation Timeguard (Croissant and Timekeeper’s debut), where Croissant Cookie and GingerBrave go back in time to fix the events leading up to GingerBrave’s meeting with Croissant Cookie, and Mission: Save the Future! (String Gummy’s debut), where String Gummy Cookie goes to the past to warn Croissant Cookie of a disastrous event that will occur if Croissant Cookie distributes her newest invention (the Time Manipulator) to the public.
As for Twizzly Gummy, she appeared in a Kingdom event called Interdimensional Super Mayhem alongside Mala Sauce Cookie. She and her team (who are parallel version of Carrot Cookie, Mint Choco Cookie, Avocado Cookie and Strawberry Cookie respectively) arrive in Dragon’s Valley, Mala Sauce Cookie’s home, to cause havoc. After a fight with GingerBrave, his friends, and Mala Sauce Cookie, Twizzly Gummy Cookie threatens to send GingerBrave and Mala Sauce Cookie to a ruined timeline. However, before this can happen, Croissant Cookie shows up to arrest Twizzly Gummy Cookie for ruining the timelines.
Compared to Operation Timeguard and International Super Mayhem, I don’t really know much about Save the Future because I wasn’t playing Ovenbreak that much around the time of the event. (To be fair, I didn’t even know what Cookie Run WAS until a friend introduced me to it, so I also missed out on Operation Timeguard. However, I have watched the cutscenes, so I have a general idea of the story. And as for International Super Mayhem, I actually HAVE the cutscenes on my Kingdom account, as well as Twizzly Gummy herself because she is playable.) Once I have free time, I’ll search up the cutscenes for Save the Future and give more information on it.
However, in terms of time travel stuff, that’s about it. Again, I’m new to editing Wikipedia, so if anyone could give me tips on how to add both Cookie Run games to here, I’d really appreciate it. Also, I think I might help out with the Cookie Run Kingdom article, because it lacks some events like the main story and limited-time events. (Even though I’m not that great at editing.)
Ttfn fellas!

Combine video games as a storyline and as gameplay tables together
[edit]I would like to propose combining the two video game tables together into a single one with a new column for whether the game features time travel as gameplay, storyline, or both. These tables make up the bulk of this article, but the vast majority of the entries are duplicated in both tables. Games that feature time travel as a gameplay mechanic (for the most part) will also have it be part of the story as well, and vice versa. Having two separate tables requires duplicate entries be maintained, and there are a number of games which I can pick out that haven't been entered correctly (only one Zelda game is listed as having time travel as part of its plot...)
