About this board game

Welcome to the captivating world of T.I.M.E Stories, a unique cooperative board game that whisks its players on a thrilling journey through space and time. The game is an immersive blend of role-playing, puzzle-solving, and strategic decision-making, which makes it an engaging experience for all types of board game enthusiasts.

In T.I.M.E Stories, you and your fellow players take on the roles of temporal agents – highly trained operatives capable of time traveling to any place and period in human history. You are part of the T.I.M.E agency, a futuristic organization tasked with preventing temporal faults and paradoxes from threatening the fabric of our universe.

The game is set in a variety of scenarios, known as “decks”, each offering a different time period and location. From the eerie halls of an asylum in 1920s France to the sun-soaked streets of ancient Egypt, the decks are beautifully illustrated and richly detailed, providing a unique setting in each playthrough.

The core mechanics of T.I.M.E Stories revolve around exploration, teamwork, and resource management. Players must work together to navigate through the deck, gather clues, interact with characters, and solve intricate puzzles. The game is run on a “time” resource, which players must manage wisely lest they run out and fail their mission.

Each playthrough is a race against the clock; your team must complete its mission before running out of time units. Thus, players must strike a balance between thorough exploration and swift progress. Making the right decisions at the right time is crucial to success.

What makes T.I.M.E Stories truly unique is its narrative-driven gameplay and immersive storytelling. Unlike many board games, T.I.M.E Stories is not about winning or losing—it’s about the journey, the choices you make, and the story that unfolds from those decisions. Moreover, each deck can only be played once, as the players’ knowledge of the story’s twists and turns would give them an unfair advantage in subsequent playthroughs. This results in an exciting, high-stakes experience every time you play.

So prepare to embark on a thrilling adventure through time and space, where your decisions will shape the course of history. Welcome to T.I.M.E Stories.
