About the game
Ever wondered if the Venus de Milo predates the Mona Lisa? If you're the type who loves a knowledge challenge without the heavy lifting or long sessions, Timeline: Louvre is your new favorite tabletop companion. This game turns art history into a super dynamic temporal perception duel. The concept is simple and addictive: you get a hand of cards featuring iconic artworks, monuments, or historical events, and your goal is to place them correctly within a growing timeline. Imagine the vibe: on one side, we have ancient cuneiform tablets; on the other, the modernity of a Beyoncé music video. The challenge lies in deciding whether the card in your hand came before or after what's already on the table. It's a fast-flowing game, perfect for a quick break between sessions or a casual gathering with friends. Best of all, it's highly versatile and can be combined with any other title in the famous Timeline series to expand your historical repertoire. It's guaranteed fun for anyone who loves learning something new while trying to outsmart their friends in a historical chronology battle. Get your art history knowledge ready and see if you truly know what came first!
