Age Order is a daily football puzzle from Futbolle. Each day you see five well-known players with no birth dates and tap them in order from youngest to oldest. You have three tries, and the players you place right stay locked in green.
About Futbolle Age Order
Age Order is one of the daily games on Futbolle, a football puzzle site. Each puzzle is numbered and dated, and shows five players as cards with a photo and a name. Nothing else is given: no club, no birth date, no hint. You tap them into five slots from youngest to oldest and press Check.
A wrong order is not the end. Players in the right slot turn green and stay put, and the others go back to the row so you can try again. You get three tries in all. The five are always at least two years apart in age, so there is only one correct order, and ages are worked out on the day from Wikipedia birth dates.
At the top you choose All leagues or a single league: Süper Lig, Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga or Ligue 1. Each has its own five for the day, so there are seven sets to play. Players are drawn from the most-read Wikipedia pages of each league, and a player only comes back once the rest of the pool has had a turn, always with four new team-mates.
Unlike guess-the-player games, you never type a name: the whole puzzle is a sense of when each player arrived on the scene. It suits football fans who follow the big European leagues and want a quick daily round, and the share button copies a result with no spoilers. A statistics card keeps your games played, win rate, streak and how many tries each solve took, in your own browser.

Tips
- Place the oldest and the youngest first; with those two locked only three players are left to order.
- After a wrong check, keep the green players and move only the ones that came back.
- Think of when you first heard of a player, a breakthrough season or a tournament, rather than how old he looks.
- Most mistakes are two neighbours the wrong way round, so try swapping adjacent players before reshuffling.
