    Future Wars – Time Travellers, I had it on the Atari ST but it could be the Amiga or PC version.

    It’s a point & click game. One who’s ad I still remember seeing in various gaming mags from the early-mid 90s.

    And no, I have no idea what it’s name is :(

        Was indeed Delphine originally. I remembered their name before I could dredge up the name of the game!

        Maybe it changed at some point or something.

    Ahh good old Future Wars. Used to love this game. Bought it on PC years ago back when I was littler.

    I remember the copy protection system, where you had to identify colour spots from the manual to the screen.

    I pressed a wrong one and got kicked back to c: prompt with a message saying “The copy protection police will come to your door at midnight”.

    Got so scared I didn’t sleep and had my box and receipt next to me all night to prove I bought it, I really thought they were coming for me =(.

    this game was awesome but i ever finished it, got stuck in an elevator near the end… well i think it was near the end.

    also i loved the old copy right protection back in the day, i remember having to get the right colours on the shoes before playing this game.
