Timeline

Minimum Recommended Age: 8+
Time to Play: 15 minutes
Players: 2-6

While other versions of Timeline are focused on certain elements (events, inventions, discoveries, etc.), Timeline Classic is a highly engaging version that encompasses multiple themes in one convenient package.

Was the pencil invented before Washington crossed the Delaware? Find out in this incredibly engaging educational trivia game.

Each card has a different event/invention/ etc. on it, and on the opposite side of the card is the date in history that it occurred. Players start with one randomly drawn card in the middle of the table to form the timeline, and on your turn, you place a card before or after it – depending on when you think this happened.

Leave the card in place if you are correct or discard it and draw a new one if you’re wrong. The first player to get rid of all their cards wins!
