    Great for history lovers!

    First off I’m a huge history buff. Love learning new knowledge, trivia, and more. This is a fun game for those who are into history and more. I will say if certain talks about certain types of death may trigger you I wouldn’t get this (mentions of suicide and drug overdoses with the type of drug listed) but honestly it’s a game about death so you should know what you’re getting into right away. Wasn’t a problem for me and my family! We loved the fact each card listed a small summary of the person, their cause of death, and their years of their lives. It’s a incredibly fun game for people who are interested in pop culture trivia and the historical aspect!

    History buffs!

    Deadlines brings a history lovers dreams together. One being you know who the name is on the card and two you know enough about their life that gives you the right clues to guess either their birthdate, how old they were, or when they died. I must admit I didn't know as much as I thought I did. This was a challenge for me and my opponents loved it. It would be nice if there was a tray to place the three sets of cards into. This game would be best for players that were at least 25 years old, some of the names were not some would know immediately. All in all it's a cool concept that will entertain an older set. I also noticed that the play time is more than 20 minutes because the players were not knowledgeable about the name they chose.

    It’s just ok

    Me and my family found this to be an okay game. I find the instructions were more complicated then it should be. Once we got to the game though it was easy to play and understand but you do have to explain to the young ones about death and the horrible ways these historical figures have passed. We prefer other games by foxmind like the match madness.

    Not Bad

    I tried the Deadlines game by Foxmind Toys and it is not a bad game. It is recommended for people ages 14+ and it can be played with 1-10 players. The concept of the game is to put famous people from pop culture, science, politics, and sports in order by either their birth, lifespan, or death. I thought the game was just ok. I'm not really that knowledgeable when it comes to famous people from history and pop culture so to me the game was a bit more difficult. Overall it was fun to get together with a group of friends and family to try out a new game.

    Deathly fun

    At first the directions were a little confusing but we quickly got the hang of it. Deadlines became my 15 year old son's favorite game and he asks to play it all of the time. It can be played solo or up to 10 players. The cards give a clue in case you don't know who the player was. It is harder than you think to arrange by birth, lifespan or death order especially on the ones that are so close. Such a fun family game.

    Great game to play with my teenagers

    This game was a bit complicated for the younger kids but it was good to play with the teenagers and my partner. They were able to ask some questions and learn about some of the people on the cards they had never heard of before or knew anything about. So in all it was a good learning tool for them, I won't complain about that. The game itself is good you just have to pay attention to each card and detail. Had to go over the rule book a few times before we got it but it got our attention for a few hours.

    A little confusing at first

    The instructions were a little confusing and it took me a little bit to understand how this game is played. I think it would be more fun with a larger group of people playing because 68 cards is a lot to keep up with. Trying to keep things in chronological order was a challenge but fun. I learned some things while playing the game. I think older teens and adults would like this game.

    Great game!

    It took us a minute to get the hang of this game but once we did it was a lot of fun! It is a bit challenging but definitely a lot of fun! My teens love playing it and it makes for a good family game night with lots of laughter. I definitely recommend it!
