      How to play

      1. Every day there is one real object from a museum collection. Everyone gets the same one.
      2. Read the first clue, then set a year on the timeline and choose a range: ±10, ±25, ±50 or ±100 years.
      3. If your range overlaps the museum's date, you win. If not, you're told whether the object is earlier or later and how far off you were, and the next clue opens. Clue 3 is a photograph.
      4. Three guesses. Points: ±10 = 100, ±25 = 60, ±50 = 40, ±100 = 20, multiplied by 1× / 0.7× / 0.4× for guess 1 / 2 / 3.

      A new object appears at midnight, your local time.
