Chronology Board Game

Muy entretenido

This is a great game and was as expected. It is a good family night game but not a long strategy game and super easy to play so its accessible and does not require an all night commitment if that is an issue. I was worried my young adult son wouldnt like it or not do well but he liked it and won one game. The idea is very simple, you are given an event in history but that might be cultural too like what year did salsa become the biggest selling condiment or when was bubble wrap invented, and you dont have to really know the exact year but where it falls on your timeline which is always changing. This works then for younger people who will not know when JR got shot lol but often you have a sense of when something was and can guess the range although also you can be laughably 100 years off and so it does spark laughter and conversations about history too. I guess at some point you go through all the cards but honestly no one is going to remember all the dates and its really your random timeline that makes some more difficult than others so I dont see an issue reusing them. this will be a regular in our rotation.

Excellent game, a lot of cards, good variety. We just received it and played it for one night, it was fun. Looking forward to going through the rest of the deck!

Lots of fun. I play with my kids in fits and spurts and it’s great fun.

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.
