From time to time, interactive simulations are created based on actual StreamDiver missions. These are released here for training purposes.

New Data At 865741.3 UDC, StreamDiver Alpha Tango-678 performed a routine StreamDive to the middle of the twenty-first century. He did not travel alone... An agent of the Temporal Sciences Commission has gone rogue. Now you, Captain Remington of the Streamdive Investigation Division, must follow him back into the past to set right what he has set wrong before all of history is unravelled in his wake. Explore six detailed environments for the clues you'll need to unlock a mystery woven into humanity's past -- a secret so powerful that it drove one of your own to commit the ultimate crime against history. Fully illustrated and with a complete musical score, Moments out of Time (Adventure Type) explodes the story begun 2001's Interactive Fiction Competition second place winner.

StreamDiver Alpha Tango-678 FYEO

Clearance granted for immediate StreamDive. Target is local grid reference 0x1549. Temporal Reference 785278.7 UDC. We will be in phase for StreamDive at 865741.3 UDC. Dive duration not to exceed .5 units UDC (12 hours local time). Stream Capacitance field will be set for auto-recall at this time. Research unit indicates high levels of stream distortion in this zone, indicating that premature extraction may not be possible. Mission Summary: The purpose of your StreamDive is historical research. We have isolated an evacuated area to minimize potential corruption. You are to record all findings, but avoid direct contact with any inhabitants. Records from this zone are fragmentary, so any documents of historical interest should be added to your DataStore.

PLEASE REVIEW STREAMDIVER MANUAL BEFORE COMMENCING DIVE.
