How to play the Jack Nicholson movie timeline game

Jack Nicholson's whole screen career is spread across these cards, each naming its director, and you rebuild it in release order. The first film is already on the timeline with its year visible. You take each new card and choose its gap. Right picks reveal the year and stay; wrong picks still move to their true place but use up one of your three lives.

His filmography takes in cheap horror, counterculture road movies, a famous streak of dramas, a few films he directed himself, comic-book villainy and warm comedies. The deck stops when he stopped, so there's no recent work to lean on. A few directors show up repeatedly, which helps less than it seems, and the low-budget genre titles are the easiest to misplace.

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.
