Play Pepper’s Adventures in Time Online

Pepper's Adventures in Time came out in 1993 from Sierra On-Line, one of those MS-DOS point-and-click titles that felt right at home alongside other adventure games of the era. You play as Pepper, a young girl who has to recover scattered historical artifacts with the help of her dog, Lockjaw. The game doesn't take itself too seriously, mixing educational themes with a lighthearted tone that keeps things engaging without turning into a history lesson.

You control Pepper (and occasionally Lockjaw) through a series of screens, interacting with objects and characters to solve inventory-based puzzles. The main goal involves traveling between present-day Philadelphia and the same city during the American Revolution to correct altered historical events. Key mechanics include switching between time periods to affect changes in the other era and combining items in creative ways to progress. The pacing is thoughtful, with puzzles that require attention to detail rather than quick reflexes. It feels rewarding to see how your actions in the past directly reshape the world in the present.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
