Order the Gary Oldman films by year of release. You place all 45 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Gary Oldman disappears into his roles, and this deck asks you to place each one in time. Every card is a film with its director listed, and you sort by year of release, starting from one film already on the timeline with its year showing. If you pick the right gap for a new card, the year appears; if you pick wrong, the film still goes to its true spot and you lose one of three lives.
He made his name with unhinged villains and real-life figures before settling into mentor and authority-figure parts in two huge franchises. Those franchise films overlap in time, which is where most runs go wrong. A batch of small genre thrillers adds to the confusion, since they're easy to forget, and his transformations mean you can't always picture which role came when.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
Here are 28 of the 45 cards you might be dealt, with 17 more in the deck. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
