As we all know, the biggest hazard historians have ever faced when chronicling the evolution of humanity has always been..... not getting one's fingers caught in the ring binder! 😂 In this race against the ticking chronicle, you will be adding pages to your books of trade, industry and science, to build up your tableau and move along the tracks of well, trade, industry and science. Will you bet on your version of the history of civilisation and aim for the big objectives? Or play it safe and lock in the easier victory points?

Thanks for stopping by for our review of Books of Time! We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
