Low-key fun for mixed group of players
It is a great, lowkey game to play that combines a little luck, a little trivia knowledge, and a little critical thinking. Fun.

So enjoyable for history nerds and non history nerds alike. Super fun.
This isn’t far our favorite family game. We are a bunch of history nerds but I had no idea how much they would enjoy this game! It’s easy to play and everyone can participate because of the random timelines created during play of the game. We also, often play with teams. The cards are durable and it’s a great price for lots of fun and some education too. Highly recommend.

Good gift for your history buff friend
This is a classic game for a reason. Probably not something a 10 year old would enjoy, but perfect for any teens or adults interested in history. And it’s easy and fun to play for everyone else, too.

Fun game for adults
A very fun and educational game. My son in law loves it. I don’t think it would be great for kids under 16 ….just too much world knowledge. It is great for adults !

Fun game for all
This game is so much fun! Even for non-history lovers it’s a fun game. I got this for my dad who is a history buff and played with my family multiple times. It’s a simple concept and even my son could join in on the fun! Great gift and fun to play!

Great game for adults!
Not for anyone under 21! You must know history to like this game. Excellent conversation starter and fun to play.

Easy and fun!
My friends and I love this game! I’ve gotten lots of compliments on it. We are all brainiacs and enjoy learning new things while laughing with each other. The cards are a very good quality, they’re easy to store, and the game never takes more than two minutes to explain, making it easy for anyone to play!

Easy to learn and fun for the whole family!
A a recent family gathering, 3 generations sat down to play CHRONOLOGY and all enjoyed. Ages ranged from 10 years old to 83 years old. I love that there is really no skill involved, you can just guess. If you are a history buff, like my 83 year old father, and you've been around long enough to really see some stuff, you might have a bit of an edge, but even the best of us is forced to guess at the dates every now and then. The rules are simple, you get a card to start with. The card will list a historical event and the year it occurred. This is the starting point of your time line. With your next card, you need to decide if it happened before or after the date of your first card. From there you are building a time line, deciding where in your series of cards the events occurred, the first player to build a correct 10 card time line wins. It's simple, doesn't require keeping score, a timer or rolling dice, everything is in one compact box that is easy to take on the road to a friend's house. I will say you need a lot of table space to play this, laying out your cards in a line, especially if you have 4 or more players, takes up a lot of real estate, so pick a big table! Overall I think CHRONOLOGY will become a welcomed addition to your family game nights. Game play is quick, so you can use this as an ice breaker or filler at a party. You can even decide to build a shorter time line of only 5 or 8 cards, depending on how much time you have. It is especially fun at a New Year's Eve party, while waiting to usher in a new year, it's fun to reflect on all that has already happened!

I have an old 90s version of Chronology that had cards ending in the early-mid 1990s. This 20th anniversary set updates the game and introduces other ways of playing. The twin faced cards are an odd choice, though does allow a team play session. Chronology remains a hit at games night and lets you have little anecdotes/jokes at later dates on past sessions.

The game came quickly. My wife and I played it for hours and enjoyed reviewing our lived life history. The game may be tough for young people who don't have a lived history .
