This card game is part of the acclaimed Anno Domini series, where the goal is simple, but the execution is anything but: get rid of all your cards by ordering historical events in a chronological timeline. The cool thing is that each card has an event on one side and the date on the other, but you can only see the event description. The twist with 'Flopps' is that all the events are, well, historical 'flops' – things that went terribly wrong, which guarantees plenty of laughs. Players take turns adding cards to the central timeline, trying to maintain chronological order. But here's the fun part: instead of adding a card, you can accuse a player of having broken the order! If you're right, the previous player takes the hit; if you're wrong, you're the one who suffers. The beauty of Anno Domini: Flopps is that you don't need to be a historian to do well. Many events are obscure or difficult to date precisely, which opens up space for bluffing and intuition. It's a super engaging social game, perfect for parties, where laughter and surprise are constant. And the best part? You can play 'Flopps' on its own or mix it with other Anno Domini sets for an even more epic and varied experience! ## FAQ ### How many players can participate in Anno Domini: Flopps?
