Chronosort

Chronosort is a timeline game played with picture cards. Each card names something from history, such as the invention of the crossbow, the start of the First Crusade, the birth of Galileo or the first mobile phone sold to the public. Cards already on the timeline show their year, and each new card arrives without one. You drop it between the two cards you think it falls between.

A right placement reveals the year and adds a point; a wrong one costs one of five hearts. Reach ten points to win the daily game. The cards change every day and come from a pool of more than 180, and the result can be shared as a short numbered line with your hearts left and points scored. A calendar of past days' games, added in November 2024, lets you play any day you missed, and a statistics screen keeps your record.

The game is made by Antoine L. and runs in the browser on itch.io, played with the mouse or by touch on a phone, where the cards are small. Because each card is placed relative to the others rather than dated exactly, it rewards a rough sense of which came first more than memorised years.

It suits players who like Chrono or Chronle and want the same ordering idea built up one card at a time, with pictures to help.
