Daily Timeline

Daily Timeline is a daily history puzzle where you navigate from one historical event to another in exactly 5 steps by choosing which event happened closer in time to your destination.

Each puzzle gives you a starting event and a target event separated by centuries or millennia. Your job is to build a chronological bridge between them. Two options appear at each step. Pick the one closer in time to your goal. If you choose incorrectly, you're shown the correct answer and continue from there. Everyone plays all five steps, and five correct picks earn a perfect journey.

• You start at one historical event and need to reach another.
• Two new events appear as choices. Pick the one closer in time to your destination.
• A wrong pick reveals the correct answer, then your journey continues.
• Get all 5 picks correct for a perfect journey.
• The events span all of human history, from ancient empires to space exploration.
• A new timeline drops every day.

The challenge lies in your mental map of history. You need to know whether the Colosseum opened before or after Alexander conquered Persia, and which gets you closer to 1990.

Why we like it:

• ✅Tests your sense of historical scale, not just memorized dates.
• ✅Every puzzle connects distant eras in surprising ways.
• ✅Wrong picks become little history lessons as you continue your journey.

Hint: If you are uncertain between two events, think in broad eras first. Ancient, medieval, early modern, and contemporary categories can help you compare the options before trying to pin down exact dates.
