Overview

Time Trax is a side-scrolling action game from Malibu Interactive and THQ (via their subsidiary Malibu Games, not to be confused with Malibu Interactive) that is based on the 90s US-Australian time-travel TV show of the same name. Darien Lambert, the player character, is a 2193 detective that must pursue criminals that have escaped by travelling back 200 years in time to the then-current year of 1993. Darien has exceptional intelligence and athleticism and some limited psychic ability: all of which are commonplace for 2193, but gives him a distinct edge in 1993.

Time Trax is exclusive to the Super Nintendo and was released in both North America and PAL regions. A Sega Genesis version was in development but was canceled before its release.

This game is not to be confused with Time Trax, the 1986 ZX Spectrum/Commodore 64 action-adventure game about a nuclear holocaust survivor.
