During combat, Stanley has three attack moves at his disposal, as well as a blocking move. The navigation is character- rather than camera-based, similarly to survival horror games. Character navigation and combat resemble those of Alone in the Dark. Most of the time in the game is spent fighting enemies. Each era has its own characteristic enemies and sets of weapons: for example, Stanley fights with rocks and bone knives in the Prehistoric era, switching to shurikens and katanas in Japan, revolvers and shotguns in the Wild West, laser pistols in the future, etc.

The player character travels to eight different time periods: Prehistoric, Roman Empire, Feudal Japan, Medieval, Conquistador, Wild West, Modern Wars, and Future. Time Commando is an action game with light puzzle-solving elements. Stanley Opar, a member of S.A.V.E (Special Action for Virus Elimination) enters the vortex with one goal: destroy the virus before the universe ceases to exist.

This virus creates a dimensional vortex that threatens to swallow the entire world. However, a programmer working for a corporation that seeks the downfall of the simulation developers infects the system with a virus. In the near future, the military has created an advance computerized combat simulation, which allowed participants to be trained in various forms of combat throughout human history.
