How to play the Inter Milan history timeline game

Every card is a moment in Inter Milan's history: league titles across the eras, European Cups, UEFA Cups, managerial appointments, a world-record signing and a treble. You order them by year, with a line under each title explaining what happened. One card starts on the timeline with its year showing. Then each card in turn needs a spot between the others. Nail the gap and the year is revealed; a wrong one still moves it to where it belongs and costs one of three lives.

League titles make up a large share of the deck, and many of their descriptions are similar, so you'll lean on the coaches and nicknames mentioned. The club's great eras, from the defensive side that conquered Europe to a treble-winning team, stand out, but the titles in between are spread unevenly. A wartime name change and a title awarded off the pitch add twists. Expect close calls between back-to-back crowns.

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.
