How it works
(Scroll down for the Dutch explanation)
Preparation before the game starts:
- Download the QR-song app https://www.qrsong.io/en/download-app?utm_
- Set up a good music system
- Decide whether you will play alone or in teams. If you are with a big group, make teams!
- Each player/team receives 2 tokens and 1 music card, which they place in front of them with the date facing up to start the timeline.
- Choose a DJ. With Spotify Free one player acts as DJ and scans all cards for the team whose turn it is, including their own card when it’s their turn, without looking at the card.
Let’s start!
1. Scan the music card
A randomly chosen team starts.
The DJ draws the top card from the deck and scans the QR code using the QR-Song app.
The song starts playing instantly.
2. Place the card in your timeline
Is this song older or younger than the cards already in your timeline?
And if you already have multiple cards, does it belong between two of the songs you have placed?
Trust your instincts and your musical memory and place the card where you think it belongs.
3. Reveal the release year
Flip the card over and check the year:
- Correct placement: You keep the card proudly in your timeline. If the year matches another card in your timeline, place it directly next to that card.
- Incorrect placement: The card goes to the discard pile. No worries, the game keeps moving!
4. Pass the turn
The game continues clockwise, and the next player gets ready.
5. Win the game
You or your team are the winners of the game when you have a timeline of 10 cards!
If multiple players get their 10th card in the same round, the winner is the player whose last card is closest to the exact year.
The use of the tokens
1. During your turn
- Earn a token
When it is your turn, you can earn 1 Labeau token if you know the correct title of the song and the name of the artist.
You can even earn a token if you place that card incorrectly on your timeline.
No player may have more than 5 tokens during the game.
- Pay a token
Don’t know the song? Pay 1 Labeau token and scan the next card for a new song. Put the token and the card in the box.
2. During your opponent’s turn
Think a player placed a card incorrectly?
Call “HIT!” before they flip the card.
Place one of your tokens on their timeline where you think the card belongs.
- If you’re right: you steal the card and place it correctly in your own timeline.
- If you’re wrong: nothing happens.
Return all used tokens to the box.
3. Whenever you want
Exchange 3 Labeau tokens for the top music card from the deck and place it on your timeline, without having to guess the release date.
Enjoy the music together and have a great time playing!
