Trouble on the Tempus

Trouble on the Tempus is a game about travelling through the depths of space in a lovely spaceship … as it catches fire and the electronics explode and it falls apart around you. You're pretty much doomed. Luckily you're in a time machine, part of an exploratory mission to test the latest time traversing technology, but you pushed the ship too far and things have gone horribly wrong.

But the Tempus is a time machine. You jury-rig it to perform very localised jumps of the crew allowing you to transport yourselves back to a time when you were not as close to death hoping that if you can gather enough information about the future state of the ship you may be able to prevent your ultimate destruction.

But don't cause too many paradoxes otherwise the ship may find itself trapped in a fate much worse than exploding in the depth of space, if such a thing is possible.
