Before Our Time

Build a timeline of inventions, discoveries and moments that changed the world. Place an event before, between or after your cards, then reveal its year.

1. Each player starts with one dated event. Take turns placing a new event on your own timeline.
2. The year stays hidden until you choose a gap and place the event. Earlier years go first.
3. A correct placement keeps the card. A wrong placement discards it. Events from the same year can go on either side of each other.
4. The first player with ten events wins. If no unseen events remain, the longest timeline wins; ties share the win.
5. Signed-in accounts remember every dealt event, including starting cards and misses. Rooms avoid events seen by any signed-in participant. Guest games only avoid repeats within that game.
