TIME: A Historical Life
One life. A thousand years.
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.

Begin anywhere from the Ice Age to the Atlantic world. Every choice writes one life into history, and one family line across the ages.
You know what history is about to do. Your character does not.
TIME is a historical life simulator built around that tension. Begin in a real year, place, and social world, then age one year at a time as work, family, property, politics, disease, and war collide with your choices.
LIVE A WHOLE LIFE
Build relationships, learn a trade, improve your standing, acquire property, and face events shaped by your age, class, reputation, and place in the world.
CONTINUE THE FAMILY LINE
Death does not have to end the story. Continue as an heir, inherit what survived, and watch one dynasty cross generations—and eventually entire eras.
SEE THE ODDS
Dangerous choices show their risks. Locked paths explain what stands in your way. TIME is a game of consequence, not hidden rules.
HISTORY CHANGES THE WORLD
Plague, invasion, political upheaval, economic shocks, and social change alter the rules around your character. Hindsight tells you what is coming; survival still depends on what this life can know and do.
Four deeply simulated historical settings are included at launch:
• The Upper Palaeolithic
• Classical Rome
• Late Medieval England
• The Atlantic world
TIME plays fully offline and has no accounts, advertisements, energy timers, or in-app purchases. It collects limited anonymous gameplay analytics and sanitized crash diagnostics, never saved games, names, narrative text, touch recordings, or advertising data.
