Inventions & Science drops you into the rooms where the modern world was switched on — a lab bench, a first demonstration, a world's fair hall, a factory floor. Read the machines, the light and the clothes, then place it and set the year.
Play 5 inventions & science roundsEvery round is a real, dated moment of invention or discovery.
Light is the best clock here: candles and oil, then gas, then electric bulbs, then fluorescent tubes and screens. The machines on show date themselves too.
Every round is solvable without knowing the event. These are the details experienced players check first, roughly in the order they narrow the answer down.
Each decade has its own page: what inventions & science looked like then, and the rounds from that stretch of history you can meet in the game.
