About the game
Which came first? The Venus de Milo or the Mona Lisa? From the early Cuneiform tablets to the filming of a Beyoncé and Jay-Z's music video, The Louvre's historical providence and prominent collection go hand in hand. See if you can remember when the The Louvre Pyramid was installed, or when Delacroix painted Liberty Leading the People. The artifacts of the Louvre have never been this much fun! Timeline: Louvre takes the players through a historical tour of the Louvre. Each player has a hand of cards, and they take turns trying to place those cards correctly into the growing timeline. Guess correctly to get rid of all your cards and win! Timeline: Louvre can be combined with any other title in the Timeline series. —user summary
