    Find and thought-provoking

    Deadlines is a game you definitely have to think about when you play it. You have to have a good grasp on people and where they place in history. It does cover past and present and dead or alive. I just found the instructions a bit hard to understand. I found a short video clip on YouTube that really helped me out. That might be something they should include in the game. Have a QR code to a video so then at least you know you’re playing the game right. This game was hard for our 10 year year-old. He knew some things, but I think this is perfect for older children and adults. This game is fun and It really makes you think. And you get to learn in the process.

    So much fun

    Thank you @thisisbutterly and @foxmindgames for gifting me this Deadline (The party Game of A Lifetime). At first, I was a little confused about how to play it but once I got the hang of the game it was easy. This game only comes with 2 decks of cards and instructions. It is very practical to take on the go to parties or gatherings it comes in a small box (as big as a book) and you can play up to 10 people. It is so much fun and it challenges you to use your memory or knowledge about whatever you recall about the famous characters. You get so into the game that you don't want to stop playing. The game consists of placing the card of the famous character in one of the 3 rows which are Date of Birth, Life Span, and Date of Death. You have to guess what you know about the character. Life Span for me is easier than guessing the date of birth unless I know the famous character. I am not so good at the date of death but I guess a few. I like this game it challenges you to recall. It teaches you at the same time a lot about these characters and how they died. We had so much fun playing this and the best part is a lot of players can play.
    This game is affordable and makes a great gift. I recommend it.

    Interesting party game, for sure!

    Definitely not a small children game. Geared for older teens and above, who know a little about celebrities, historic figures, etc. To know the lives of people passed, is to win this game. Seems slightly morbid but not really. Good educational tool if you're in the history field.

    Great game for history enthusiasts!

    Being a history enthusiast, I love trivia games like this to test your knowledge and even learn a few new interesting facts about former figures throughout history. This game has just over 200 former well-known figures that have passed away either recently or a long time ago.. Some of the names in this game I wasn’t familiar with at all, but most of them are recognizable and fun to learn new facts and compete with your friends about their timeline. This would be a fantastic game for trivia nights or history teachers to use in their classes. Some content is a little more mature for younger kids to play. I didn’t expect to see accidental overdose or self inflicted death on so many famous people. This would be a great game for expansion packs and added cards. This was a fun game to play and I would play it again with my friends and family.

    We enjoyed this game

    This game was fun to play. It took a minute to understand but once we got going it was worth it. The amount of people that have passed in this game.. wow. It was fun learning about born dates, death dates, and life spans.

    Fun for an older crowd

    This game was a little too confusing for my teen and my 9 year old to really enjoy. If you’re into celebrities and history, this game might be a lot more fun for you. I’m able to pay it with other adults and we actually enjoyed it.

    Take the time to learn, then continue to enjoy!

    When we first opened the box and dove in, my kids were less than thrilled with the learning time for the game. They want to get to it and play. I'm a rule follower and did just that. Went through directions, rules and how tos. We then played properly, laughed and had a great time. It does take some walking through to get used to, but the second round is great. Our family from 8-63 has enjoyed this new and fun game.

    Good challenge

    This game is pretty fun to play a little challenging but fun. I was a little confused on how the game was played even reading the instructions but once I went over it and read them a couple times it clicked. It’s fun learning a little info on famous dead people like their birth / death / and cause. It’s a little morbid but a great game with up to 10 people being able to play at a time!
