Chrono Trivia How to Play dialog: put history in the right order by arranging real events earliest to most recent, with drag and drop, an expert year mode, three attempts, and six daily categories.

Chrono Trivia gives you a set of real events each day to drag into chronological order. The Daily Mix has six events from every category and four attempts; six category puzzles (history, science, technology, culture, sports, entertainment) have four events and three attempts. An Expert mode also asks for the year of each event.

About Chrono Trivia

Chrono Trivia is a free daily timeline game. Each day brings a Daily Mix of six events drawn from every category, which is the puzzle everyone shares, and a separate four-event puzzle for each of six categories: entertainment, technology, sports, science, world history and pop culture.

You drag the event cards into order from earliest to latest and submit. A wrong answer tells you how many events are out of place, and you rearrange and try again: three attempts on a category puzzle, four on the Daily Mix. After the first miss you can take a hint that shows the decade of one misplaced event, at a cost of 15 points. When the puzzle ends you see the real timeline with years and a short fact about each event.

Scoring rewards solving early: 100 points on the first attempt down to 60 on the third, with a bonus for finishing in under 30 seconds. Expert mode adds a year guess for each event, counted right within two years. Streaks and badges are kept on your device, and an archive lists past puzzles with their answers.

How to play Chrono Trivia

  1. Open chronotrivia.com and pick the Daily Mix or a category.
  2. Read the event cards and drag them into order, earliest at the top.
  3. Submit; if any are wrong, see how many are out of place and rearrange.
  4. Take a hint after the first miss if you need it, at a cost of 15 points.
  5. Read the real timeline and the facts about each event when the puzzle ends.

Tips

  • Anchor the timeline with the event you are surest of, then place the others around it.
  • Technology and science events often have exact years worth remembering; entertainment ones cluster in recent decades.
  • Use the count of misplaced events after a miss: swap two at a time to see which moved.
