Power Rangers: Time Force for the Game Boy Color is a platform game based on the 2001 version of the franchise. In this version, the Power Rangers are police officers in the time of the year 3000. Various criminals have escaped in different time zones and the rangers must apprehend them.

The game takes place on eight levels. For some levels, it is up to the player to choose the order in which they want to face them. Locations include cities from the present, the past and the future (a prehistoric jungle, a futuristic underwater base...)
At the beginning of each level, the player can choose one of five rangers, all of which differ slightly in vitality, skill, power and speed.
The goal of each level is to find and defeat the fleeing criminal within a limited time. Along the way, there are monsters to fight and traps to avoid.
To defeat enemies or remove obstacles, rangers can choose between their fists, a fighting stick or a pistol, the stick and pistol drain energy that recharges slowly, but can also be recharged quickly by collecting the appropriate powerup, other bonuses include a health recharge, a clock that reduces the time limit and the ranger warp system, which allows the player to change rangers midway through the game.

Starting at level three, it's not enough to defeat the boss: once he's down, Power Rangers must use their Megazord (in red or blue form) to defeat him again. These battles are similar to those in a traditional one-on-one fighting game.
