Dear teechar:

First of all, thanks for your answer.

I want to understand the following:

-What time does the game started?

In that question I mixed the present tense (does) with past tense (started)?

Thanks.

-What time does the game started?

In that question, I mixed the present tense (does) with past tense (started).

Thanks.

You can't do that!
"Does" is an auxiliary verb, so the verb it modifies must be in base form.

Take a look at the following link.
