MADE FOR LEARNING
Great for homeschool families, classrooms and anyone who loves history. Every game is different, and every card teaches something new.
Free to play, with no ads and no in-app purchases.
Really enjoyed! Downloaded it for the iPad and showed it to my oldest son. He played a round and said we should play it with 4 players. So while eating breakfast, 4 of us played...a 12 year old, a 14 year old, a 19 year old, and a mom, and we all had fun and even learned or relearned about events and when they took place in US history. I especially liked that we could play this together as a family.

My kids love this app!

This app is a fun way to place historical events on the timeline. It's a fun game for kids and adults. I've tried several timelines and this one is definately the best. I hope the people who made it will make a world history timeline too.
Biased history
Brownal
I am a Social Studies teacher and downloaded this on the day it was free, thinking it was about American History. I didn't notice it was labeled HIStory....thought that was a typo. Once I began playing it, I noticed a definite right-wing bias in the "events." Examples: "Social Security Act increases federal power and weakens families"; "Despite resistance from Democrats, Republicans pass Civil Rights Act"; "Weather Underground bombs Pentagon"; and this is just a small number of suspect "events." Definitely not an app I would ever recommend to any serious student of American History.

This game is so fun! I'm a homeschool mom and we're studying American History this year. My kids are going to love learning their timeline with this fun, but educational game! Highly recommended. Beautiful graphics!

NEW: Place all 255 cards correctly to become a US History Master!
Also in this update: smoother card placement at both ends of the timeline, and cards return safely if your touch is interrupted.
