Timeliner: Music

Yes, and there is nothing to buy later. Timeliner: Music runs in your browser: no download, no app store, no payment.

No. Open the link and play. It works on a phone, a tablet, a laptop and any television with a browser, and everyone at a table can be on a different kind of device.

Open the board on the television, laptop or tablet everyone can see. The music videos play there, big and loud, while each player places songs and fires off challenges from their own phone. One screen for the show, one in every hand.

You open a table and share a short link or a four-character code. Friends join from their own phone, tablet or laptop, wherever they are — the video plays on every screen at the same moment. Make the table public and players from around the world can pull up a chair.

No table, no code, no account. Play a solo round against the deck, or pass one device around the sofa and take turns. The fastest way to find out whether the game is for you.

1–8 players. You can play a solo round against the deck, or fill a table with up to 8 people — in the same room or spread across the world.

About 15 minutes. Want a shorter or a longer game? Choose “Set up your own game” and pick how many cards it takes to win.

Only if you want to start a game for other people to join. Playing on your own screen works without one, and so does joining a game a friend started — you just choose a name.
