Time Traveler is a fantasy text adventure developed by Krell Software Corp.
The game was released on the 16K, Level II TRS-80.

Plot
The object of the game is for a player to go back in time and obtain 14 rings,
each hidden in a different era and possessing a different special power that can help the player in some way.
The player then returns with them to the time machine laboratory.

Reception
The game was reviewed in The Dragon #44 by Mark Herro.
Herro said that his opinion of the game kept changing as he played it;
he intended to evaluate the game negatively at first,
but the more he played the more he found himself liking it despite its problems.
As he was playing an early pre-production advance copy,
he found a number of little bugs in the program.
Krell Software told him they had taken care of the problems in later versions.
