Help! Can't remember a title of an early CD-Rom game where you fought through the ages and into the future. SOLVED: Time Commando (lemmy.world)

It was a really early CD-Rom game, probably 1993ish. You started off in the stone ages using sticks and rocks, fighting off bad guys and solving puzzles, and you'd move through time using the weapons of that era. I don't think I would classify it as an educational game because outside of the weapons and settings, I don't remember much of it having any information.

I'm pretty sure it was the first video game I ever beat.

ChatGPT doesn’t know things. It creates phrases that “sound” correct.

I googled this result, but it’s only partially true. There was a video game named Lost Tribe, but it doesn’t appear to be a game where you travel through the ages. You take care of a cave person tribe after a volcano. It’s an edutainment game. It also came out in 1992. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/TheLostTribe
