How to play the Kurt Vonnegut books timeline
The cards are Kurt Vonnegut stories, novels and essay collections, title only, and you sort them by the year each was first published. One title starts on the timeline with its year in view. From there, every card you draw needs a gap. Get the spot right and the year turns up; a wrong one moves the card to its true place and costs you one of your three lives.
Vonnegut started out selling short stories to magazines, and many of those early pieces are here alongside the novels. The novels are spread out, but the short fiction crowds the early stretch, and nonfiction and posthumous collections stretch the deck further than you might expect. His dark humor stays constant throughout, so tone won't help you.
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.
