Knight Tyme

After rescuing the wizard Gimbal, the Magic Knight is transported to the 25th century aboard the peaceful trade starship USS Pisces. To return to his own time, he must explore the ship, visit several planets, and solve puzzles.

Knight Tyme is the third game in the Magic Knight series. It uses the Windimation interaction system, allowing players to pick up, drop, give, examine, read, wear, or remove objects; command characters; and cast spells through a command window.

Fuel management is essential during spaceflight, as an unfueled ship can leave the knight stranded in space. Some rooms kill him instantly, requiring their associated puzzles to be solved before they can be safely accessed.
