How the Spike Lee film timeline game works

Spike Lee's films, documentaries and filmed performances are all here, one title per card with nothing printed underneath. You sort them by release year, starting with one already on the timeline and dated. For each new card, choose where it fits among the films placed. Right choices reveal the year; wrong ones still drop the film into its true spot and cost one of three lives.

Alongside his Brooklyn dramas, biopics, crime films and satires, he has made a lot of documentaries and filmed stage and concert shows, and the deck includes many of them. Those nonfiction cards are scattered through his whole career and are the easiest to misplace. He often revisits the same themes, so subject matter is a weak clue.

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.
