Usability: Balloons can be placed just about anywhere, even false ones. 

Concept: “Something went horribly wrong, you’re stranded in an ancient world on the brink of destruction. Now you must get back, back to... when was it again?”
Content: A time-traveler who picked the wrong destination.
Writing: Mechanical restrictions reinforce the characters outsider status. Abilities that allow for engagement with many tropes of time travel fiction.
