There can be 16:00 on an analogue clock. It's the grammatical expression of time, that's incorrect. 16:00, is short for sixteen hundred hour, using military(ish) terms. 4:00 PM, is short for 4 O'Clock in the Afternoon, using modern(ish) timing terms.

I was going to be helpful, and try and post some other mistakes in the copy I found, hoping it might get fixed, and make the game better. Since constructive criticism, is nitpicking. Zipping mouth now.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with pointing out minor errors you see in game.
If I were to do so, I'd probably do it by PM.
I cannot speak for this Author but from me, Thanks.

O'clock is a colloquial way of saying "of the clock" just as bloody is a way of saying "by our Lady" (an old Christian exclamation!). If you have a twenty-four hour clock, whether analogue or digital, x "of the clock", or x o'clock for x= anything from 1 to 24 is perfectly legitimate -- it's just AM or PM that would be invalid since they reference Ante Meridiem (before noon) and Post Meridiem (after noon), although since 12 o'clock is necessarily noon for such a clock, I suppose any time before 12 o'clock would still be AM and any time after would be PM anyway, they just prevent ambiguity for a 12 hour clock.

Sorry I opened my big mouth to be helpful. This discussion is counter-productive, to my intent of being helpful.

I could explain ad-nausem, how grammatically wrong your are, because you are using a syntactical argument. And that's your out, and why this is so important to you, is beyond me. Have a lovely day, I have a dog to go walk.

Just sayin' -- no nitpicking offence intended, my intent was being helpful too. English is very flexible and there's a lot of history in it that can come through. I don't like grammar nazis, but I'm a bit of a hypocrite because seeing English persistently abused makes me squirm.

Well you were the one abusing the English language. When I was growing up in Scotland. O'Clock was generally meant on the hour of.

So 4 o'clock is, where the minute hand was on numeral twelve, and the hour hand was on the numeral four. The colloquial term of o'clock, came into existence in the late 1800's. Quite probably because the popularizing of large centralized clocks, like Big Ben in London. That was still new by 1860. Military time was created around 1917. I believe 16 o'clock to be wrong, not grammatically, but plain wrong. When Big Ben strikes 16 times, in a row. That is the minute hand on the numeral XII, and the hour hand XVI. You will be grammatically, syntactically, and culturally correct. In the Queen's English.
