Order the Jay-Z studio albums by year of release. You place all 24 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Every card is a Jay-Z release, title only, and you place them by release year. One record starts on the timeline, its year visible. For each new card, pick the gap where it belongs. Pick the right spot and the year shows; a wrong pick sends the card to its real spot and takes one of your three lives.
Early on he released an album every year, and numbered volumes and sequels make that stretch look easy until you have to place them. Collaborations, mashups and unofficial releases also appear, often around his major albums. A retirement that didn't last means the records keep coming when you might expect them to stop.
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 24 of the 24 cards you might be dealt. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
