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!

I’m not into it
Personally, I'm not super interested in celebrities, pop culture, or famous figures so a lot of the characters featured were unfamiliar to me.
The gameplay is simple enough, you just have to try to correctly order the character cards. But if you don't know much about these famous people, it can be pretty challenging and not that engaging. I found myself just guessing a lot of the time instead of feeling like I was using any actual knowledge.
The cards are thin and ok quality. I thought there would at least be pictures to go along with the names, but there isn’t. It's the kind of game that would probably collect dust on my shelf most of the time. Unless you or your friends are big into famous figures and pop culture history, I'm not sure Deadlines would see much playtime.
Overall, it seems like a boring party game and just not super relevant or interesting for someone like me who doesn't really follow that scene. If you're an older adult who loves learning about famous figures through the years, you'd probably get more enjoyment out of this than I did.

Fun game
My husband and I enjoyed Deadlines game. My son not so much. It was easy to play and a lot of fun. Not knowing someone was a little challenging. Sorting them by there birth,life span or death. It's great you could play up to 10 players. And recommended 14+.

Great!
This game is so unique and fun! We play a lot of board games in our home and at game nights either extended family and friends, but so many games are similar. This is such a unique premise of a game and I really love that about it. It’s also much more challenging than you expect!

Fun game
This game is definitely for older teens and adults since a lot of the younger kids would not know a lot of the people in the box. Hope they make some expansions in the future.

So much fun!!
My husband and I love having family game night with our kids, but it was nice playing something with just the two of us that isn't for kids, and is a pretty quick play through! We had a lot of fun with this, and it's actually way easier than it sounds. Definitely recommend, it's a lot of fun for as morbid as it seems! And you learn a lot of interesting things!
