    • Enjoyable
This is a great game and was as expected. It is a good family night game but not a long strategy game and super easy to play so its accessible and does not require an all night commitment if that is an issue. I was worried my young adult son wouldnt like it or not do well but he liked it and won one game. The idea is very simple, you are given an event in history but that might be cultural too like what year did salsa become the biggest selling condiment or when was bubble wrap invented, and you dont have to really know the exact year but where it falls on your timeline which is always changing. This works then for younger people who will not know when JR got shot lol but often you have a sense of when something was and can guess the range although also you can be laughably 100 years off and so it does spark laughter and conversations about history too. I guess at some point you go through all the cards but honestly no one is going to remember all the dates and its really your random timeline that makes some more difficult than others so I dont see an issue reusing them. this will be a regular in our rotation. ... show more

    • So fun!
This was a gift and was a big hit. Have enjoyed playing it together a lot. Great for the history nerd in your life, and you’re sure to learn something. Great game for bringing to breweries or playing a quick round.

    • So enjoyable for history nerds and non history nerds alike. Super fun.
This is by far our favorite family game. We are a bunch of history nerds but I had no idea how much they would enjoy this game! It’s easy to play and everyone can participate because of the random timelines created during play of the game. We also, often play with teams. The cards are durable and it’s a great price for lots of fun and some education too. Highly recommend. ... show more

    • Low-key fun for mixed group of players
It is a great, lowkey game to play that combines a little luck, a little trivia knowledge, and a little critical thinking. Fun.

    • Great game for adults!
Not for anyone under 21! You must know history to like this game. Excellent conversation starter and fun to play.

    • Get it. You'll like it.
My wife and I love this game. One minute to learn and the games don't last too long. Lots of fun. Got another set for other family members. Simple rules: Just know, historically, which came first. Example: Which came first - the chicken or the egg?

    • Fun for teens and adults!
My husband will play this game and he hates playing games. My grandkids love playing this game. I really love this game in spite of not having done real well in history. This is much better than history classes because you don't have to know the exact dates that things happened. You just kind of need to know when they were in relation to other happenings. I'm not only have my own game, but I've also given away two of them to people who have played and really liked the game. ... show more
