Timeliner: Inventions

Place world-changing ideas, machines and discoveries in the correct order.

Which came first: the fax machine or the pocket calculator? The tin can or the can opener? (The answer to that one is stranger than you think.) Timeliner: Inventions hands you world-changing ideas, machines and discoveries, and asks you to put them in order.

Like every Timeliner game, the fun is in the challenge: place an invention on your timeline, and anyone at the table who thinks you have it wrong can call you on it. Win the challenge and the card — and the bragging rights — are theirs.

The first player to fill their ledger of correctly ordered inventions wins. Expect to be confidently, hilariously wrong about at least one thing you were sure of.
