“Road Trip Adaptation”

A passenger, of course, picks a random card from the deck without looking at the date, each of the occupants states the year they think is correct. The person that is closest wins the card. Play until someone gets 10, the deck is exhausted, or someone has had enough of the game.

Ties go to war: another card is selected, the tied players each state the year, the winner gets both cards.

“Gluttons for punishment...”

For all games in the “Timeline” series: Instead of discarding the incorrectly placed cards, we leave them on the table. I realize this can be brutal for many, but it really kicks up the difficulty for repeat plays.

“Just get rid of it!”

I play the cards I am least sure of first.
When there are fewer cards on the table there is generally a larger, more forgiving gap for where your unknown year could be.

“If Playing with younger kids...”

Let them start with fewer cards, it helps to even the playing field.
