This is the ultimate "what if?" game – a virtual “time machine in a box.” The cards are dealt and time marches forward, but what if something happened to change the past? How would that impact the future? There are Paradoxes – holes in the Space-Time Continuum that threaten to destroy the entire Universe. Every card you play has its consequences, and the game can be mind blowing! Our teenagers really like this one (great for kids 11 and up), and it's fun for Alan and me as well. It makes you consider those "what ifs" in your own life. (Maybe the fact that I never won the Miss America contest led to my wonderful life today?)

It's a pretty quick play. You can play it multiple times and encounter something new each time. I love that this is a great “on the go” game. You can even play it in the airport on your family’s trip home for the holidays.

It received several awards, including a Silver Honor from the Parents’ Choice Award.

Chrononauts Card Game is available online at Amazon.com
