Then & Now

Then & Now is a free daily timeline game from Thinking Cap. Each puzzle starts with one event already on the timeline. Your job is to place eight more: moments from history, science, sports, music, movies and pop culture, from the ancient world to the last few years. You don't need to know exact years, just what came before what.

How to play

• Drag each event onto the timeline where you think it belongs, or tap a gap to place it.
• Place an event in the wrong spot and you lose one of your three lives. The event then slides into its correct place, so the timeline is always right.
• Place all eight to finish the day's timeline, then share your result and come back tomorrow for a new one.
