Timeline — Music Year Guessing Game
A song plays. You do not see its year — only its title and the artist. Your job is to slot it into the timeline you are building: before this one, after that one. Get it right and the card stays, year face up. Get it wrong and you lose a life.
How to play
- Ten rounds, three lives. One card starts on the timeline for you.
- Listen to the 30-second extract, then pick the gap where the song belongs.
- Songs released the same year fit on either side — both answers count.
- The daily timeline is the same ten songs for everyone, and it is the only mode with a leaderboard.
- Free play gives you a new draw as often as you like.
- Expert mode hands you five songs from a single decade and asks you to order them. Scoring counts the pairs you got right, so half of them is worth nothing — that is what you get by guessing.
- You can also set your own period, as long as it spans at least two decades.
Songs are drawn evenly across the decades, from the 1950s to today, so the game is not just a test of recent music.
