Africa Through Time

An African History Game

Five thousand years of kingdoms, resistance, independence, and culture — answer until you miss, climb five levels of difficulty, and learn something on every card. For 5–6 players or teams, on one screen.

Climb the levels

Each turn starts easy and gets harder. Keep answering correctly to reach the 8-point Expert Challenge — one mistake ends the turn.

Every region, every era

Questions span North, West, Central, East, and Southern Africa plus the diaspora — from ancient Kush to the African Union.

Learn as you play

Every answer comes with a short historical explanation, and missed questions are saved for review after the game.
