Order these breakfast cereals by the year each was introduced. You place all 28 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Breakfast cereals fill the bowl here, each card with a short description printed below that often names the company behind it. You're ordering them by the year each cereal was introduced. One cereal starts on the timeline with its year showing. Pour each new card into the gap where you think it belongs. A clean placement reveals the year; a wrong guess still sets it in its true spot and costs you one of three lives.
Plain health-food flakes and biscuits, sugary favorites with cartoon mascots and later spin-offs all share the line. The sweetened cereals arrive in a rush, with the same few companies launching many of them close together. Renamed cereals are a trap, and so are spin-offs of older brands, which can come along much later than the original.
