About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! Ready to test your knowledge of Brazilian history in a super fun way? In Timeline: Brazil, the mission is simple: place cards of Brazilian historical events in the correct chronological order. Think about it: did the First Constitution come before or after the minimum wage? Was Christ the Redeemer already there to see the Modern Art Week? Each card has an event on one side and the date on the other. You play a card on the table, trying to fit it between others already placed, and only then reveal the date to see if you got it right. If you're wrong, the card goes to the discard pile, and you keep trying. Whoever gets rid of all their cards first wins! It's the kind of game that makes you think 'wow, I knew that!' or 'man, I had no idea!'. Perfect for gathering friends, having a good laugh, and learning a ton about our country. And the best part: if you already enjoy other games in the Timeline series, you can even mix the cards to make the challenge even greater! It's fast, easy to learn, and sparks great discussions. Let's build this timeline!
