. THE GAME OF TIME
In my past days of the future it came to be that a certain Time-Lord
invented "4th Dimension", mirroring his exploits and battles. He
once played it during the hour of Time-Worship, and when brought
before the Time-Elders for this crime, he explained that it was his
way of praying. When he saw the sixty sections he thought of the
seconds in a minute and minutes in an hour. The twenty-four pieces
reminded him of the hours in a day, while the twelve Blue pieces
became the months, and the four playing circles the seasons in a
year. The three Time-Warp circles represent the old way of being
Time-Trapped in three dimensions.
The Time-Elder wept when he heard this story, and pardoned the
Time-Lord. In his wisdom he sent him to the distant past to spread
the gospel of 4th Dimension, so that in the future Time-Worship
would be better understood.
This story will be true. I should know, for I was that Time-Lord.
In 4th DIMENSION (4D), you are a mighty Time-Lord, and your powerful
army of Guardians, Rangers, and Warriors stands ready to do battle.
Your opponent is equally strong, and knows that only one of you will
survive this conflict of time and space; for you are both Time-Lords,
able to alter the fabric of reality, and there is room in the
Universe for only one with such power
4D has just been launched in the U.S.A.
