Dealing & Setup
Place a shuffled deck, year-down, in the middle of the table.
Who Goes First
All players go at the same time.
Game Play
- The first player declares the decade they believe the event on the top of the deck occurred.
- If a player wants to choose a decade that has already been declared, they will need to declare a specific year within that decade.
- If a player tries to claim a decade that has already been declared, the person who first declared the decade gets the opportunity to choose the specific year within that decade, first.
- Each player may change their answer as many times as they desire.
- When all players have chosen a decade/year, one person will flip over the top card to reveal the year.
- The person who guessed the decade correctly wins that card. If nobody guessed the correct decade, the card should be placed face-down, in a separate stack, on the table.
- If a person collects 3 cards, they win. If the table collects 3 cards, all players lose.
- Continue play until a winner or group of losers has been determined.
