The musical time machine that tests your knowledge of tunes and their origins! Gather your friends and form your teams.
- 82 Year Cards: Each card contains the release year of a famous song on one side and a QR code on the other. Starting at 1957 all the way to 2024.
- 'Scan To Play' (new version) or 'Choose a Category' card (old version): This card lets you select the category you want to play with.
Up to 4 players can join, divided into 2 teams. A team can be a solo act or a group.
1. Read to Stream: At least one player of both teams have Spotify, YouTube Music or Apple Music installed on their smartphone. Subscriptions of these services are helpful to avoid ads.
Also, make sure your smartphone is setup to automatically open your favorite streaming service.
2. Pick Your Category: Only one player (the host) scans the 'Scan to Play' card. Choose 'Pick a category' and follow the instructions on the screen.
3. Shuffle and Stack: Shuffle the Year cards. Place the cards in the center of the table with QR codes facing up.
4. Cue The Music: Team A starts by scanning the QR code of the top Year Card. Quickly place the phone face down; the song will start playing after a 3-second delay.
5. Guess the Year: Both teams listen to the song. Team B guesses the year the song was originally released.
6. Later or Earlier?: Team A now decides if the actual release year is later or earlier than Team B's guess.
7. Keep or Lose: Flip the card to reveal the year. If Team A's guess (later or earlier) is correct, they win the card. If Team A's guess is incorrect, then Team B wins the card.
8. Next Tune, Please: The team that wins the card starts the next round by making the initial guess. Repeat steps 4 to 8.
The first team to collect 10 Year cards wins the game and is crowned the supreme music guru!
