About Mind the Order
Mind the Order is a daily trivia game published on Homeschool of 1, a homeschooling resource site. Every day there is one numbered game for all players, built from five items you must arrange in the right order.
The subject changes from day to day across nine topics: books by first edition, events in American history, moments in world history, inventions and technology milestones, countries by total area, chemical elements by atomic number, films and TV shows by premiere, landmark albums by release, and famous artworks by date. The facts come from sources such as the Library of Congress, the National Archives and Wikidata.
You drag the items, or use the up and down arrows, into the sequence you think is right and submit to check. Solving keeps your streak going, and your time is compared with other players. If you miss a day, you can go back and play earlier games. A new game starts at midnight US Central time.
It suits families, students and trivia fans who like timeline puzzles and want something short to share at the breakfast table.
