The game requires just a deck of 52 playing cards. On each turn, players flip over 2 cards to determine: 1) the kind of thing 2) The geographic region 3) The era If a player can name a historical thing in that region of that era, that player wins the round. ** The Kind of Thing The first card flipped determines the kind of thing: - Club -> War/battle/skirmish/fight - King -> King/male leader - Queen -> Queen/female leader - Jack -> Villian/Evil Person - Ace -> Great Monument/Architecture/Famous Building/Wonder of the World - Hearts -> Idea/cultural movement/work of art/religion - Diamonds -> development/flourishing/inventions/progress/economics/wealth/trade/prosperity - Spades -> suffering/disaster ** The Region - Hearts -> Europe - Spades -> Americas (North and South) - Diamonds -> Asia - Clubs -> Africa and Oceania ** The Era The era is the value on the second card times 100 years ago. * Is this Game Fun to Play? While this game seems interesting, I played it, and it is not fun to play.
