Order these PlayStation exclusives by the year each was first released anywhere. You place all 40 cards on one timeline, one at a time. You start with three lives, and ten right in a row wins a lost one back.
These cards are games that launched on Sony's consoles and handhelds, and you sort them by the year each one first came out anywhere. The studio that developed it sits under every title. You begin with one game on the line, its year in plain view. Slot each new card into the gap you think is right. Right calls reveal the year; wrong calls move the game into place regardless and take away a life. You have three, and getting ten correct in a row restores one.
The deck spans every PlayStation generation, from the first console's mascot platformers to the cinematic adventures of recent hardware. Studios like Naughty Dog, Insomniac and Sucker Punch show up across several generations, so a developer name only narrows things to a range. Remasters and ports are a trap, because the year that counts is the original release, not the version you may have played. Sequels are easy to place against their own series but harder against everything else.
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 28 of the 40 cards you might be dealt, with 12 more in the deck. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
