Time Travel – if it exists then in all eras at the same moment – this is the assumption of this card game. Players are inventors of the time machine in the era of their choice and travel along the time lines to ensure dominance of their own time line by depositing inventions of their own time in the different ages that favour their own time line.

Each player chooses an era, at the moment from the versions Stone Age vs. Future Tech and Medieval vs. Modern Day.

In the first part of the game players influence the course of history by playing inventions and actions into the display. Then the eras are scored and points scored are used to gain additional influence. At the start of the game era cards for Stone Age, Medieval, Renaissance, Industrial Revolution, Modern Day and Future Tech are laid out, the so called „Days“, beneath those era cards played cards are laid out. You have one of three actions: You can play an invention from your hand into the current day or play and use an action card or pass. When all players have passed the day ends and all keep their left-over cards. The next day starts with drawing cards from your own draw pile into your hand. Only the first 6 cards placed in a day are scored and earn points, but you can play additional inventions into a day to destroy other inventions or relocate them. When all six eras have been scored, the player with the highest score wins.

An incredibly beautiful and attractive game win an fancy topic and mechanisms similar to trading card games, definitely of interest for fans of unusual games.
