Timeline

I just finished playing a few games of Timeline today.  I bought the inventions pack.  Each pack contains 106 cards.  The cards of two sides, both naming an inventions.  On one side there is the date listed the invention took place, and on the other side is no date.  You deal yourself six cards, no date side up.  The rest of the cards are put into one deck date side down.  The player that goes first takes one card off the top of the deck and places it in the playing are date side up.  That player than places one of their cards in their hand face up where they think it fits in the timeline.  The first few cards are easy enough, but as the playing area gets crowed with more cards, it becomes more difficult.  If you like learning dates on famous events, then this game is for you.  Each game only took us around ten minutes or so.  The only downside is that the more you play the same deck, the more you will remember the dates (maybe).  We planning on buying more decks, as they are only $20 per deck, and we really enjoying learning new things.  This game was recommended to me by a fellow gamer, and I would recommend it as well.  Cheap. fast, fun, and educational.
