TimeLine Game

TimeLine Game is a daily history puzzle with a simple hook: every event in the day's set happened on today's calendar date, but in different years, often centuries apart. You are given five of them and have to put them in chronological order, from earliest to latest.

The events are real and span a wide range, from medieval battles and the reigns of emperors to later wars and milestones. You reorder the cards by dragging them or using the up and down arrows next to each one, then press Check Order. You have three tries to get the whole sequence right, and the game tells you how you did.

It keeps a current and best streak and a handful of achievements in your browser, with no account, and a new set appears each day at 12:20 a.m. Pacific time. When you finish you can copy a short result to share, with a green or red square for each event. The game is made by Kenan Sakarcan and is free to play in the browser, and because the events share a date it doubles as an on this day in history read.

It suits history buffs and anyone who likes a quick daily that rewards a feel for which century came first, without needing to know exact dates.

The page is a single plain card with the five events, arrows and a Check Order button, with no ads and nothing to sign up for. It works the same on a phone, where the arrows make reordering easy without dragging.
