Timeline Classic

This was a great gift for friends who are both history lovers and board game lovers. It provided entertainment for about an hour and they also take it on trips to play with friends. It makes it fun to learn new facts and also become surprised at the timeline of historical events and inventions.

Very easy to play and an awful lot of fun. I just wish there were more cards for more rounds of play.

Given the small number of cards in the game you go through about two or three rounds before being able to memorise most of them, which then loses some of the appeal of playing. Good concept though and a quick and easy game to play.

This is a fun game, and can be played by those from about 10 years to over 100, all at the same time. Some dates will astonish you, and others will be difficult to place in the timeline as the game progresses. While you will begin to remember some of the dates the more you play the game, this original version is easily compatible with other focused versions, which increases the difficulty, and fun.We gave it as a gift to visiting family, played it a lot while they were here, and are ready to buy another copy (and maybe another version or two) for ourselves.

Very handy play for Adults with little space as in assisted living quarters. Can play up to four adults, excellent brain exercise.
