Which came first--the beginning of construction on Notre Dame Cathedral, or the printing of the Gutenberg Bible? Test your historical perspective with Perspective. Two to eight players try to place event cards in chronological order in four categories: Ancient, Middle, Modern, and 20th Century. If you think one of the other players is "out of order", challenge them. Flip the question cards to reveal the dates on the back. If you're right, you get to give that player one of your cards. When all of your cards are played, you win! A fun way to impart historical knowledge and a frame of reference. Contains 100 basic set cards, 100 master set cards, board, custom die and rule sheet.
