Timeline: Classic is a card game played with 55 cards. Whilst other versions of Timeline focus on specific elements (events, inventions, discoveries, etc.), Timeline Classic is a highly engaging version that encompasses multiple themes in one handy pack. Was the pencil invented before Washington crossed the Delaware? Each card shows an invention on both sides, with the year in which that invention was made appearing on just one side. Players take turns placing a card from their hand in a row on the table. After placing the card, the player reveals the date on it. If the card is placed correctly, with the date in chronological order with all the other cards on the table, the card remains in place; otherwise, the card is removed from the game and the player takes another card from the deck.
The first player to get rid of all their cards by placing them correctly wins. If several players go out in the same round, all others are eliminated from the game and each of these players receives one more card for a new round. If only one player has no cards left after a bonus round, they win; otherwise, the game continues until a single player goes out.
