It wasn't a CDTV title, it even appeared on the A500 (if we're speaking about the same game, the one where the window-washer is transported back in time). It was made by Delphine Software, by the way.

This one should be easy to find; have a look at aceroms.

Great adventure game, this. Look for Operation Stealth and Cruise for a Corpse as well if you liked Future Wars.

Well, it was indeed the same game as the disk version, but with some bonus .... but as far as I found out, it was never released, hereĀ“s a quote from a website :

[snip]
Future Wars: Adventures in Time (Interplay): I never could nail down to my satisfaction whether or not this first Cinemathique adventure surfaced on CDTV. Interplay does indeed list the game - equally enjoyed and howled-over in the disk-based version for its dust-speck sized objects -- as one of its two CDTV releases. CBM did include it in the company's two CDTV catalogs. And CDTV retailers in the UK suggest it may have surfaced in Germany.

But I've never seen it, and, as in so many cases with CDTV, seeing is believing. If it did come out, Future Wars CDTV was to have had a full musical soundtrack (an element notably missing from the disk game).
[/snip]

So PERHAPS, but only PERHAPS it was indeed released, but never was seen anywhere, also not here in germany (where I live) ... so .... if you see it anywhere, you the know you have a rarity in your hands
