Read the full game description

Hitster: Rock is a standalone music-party edition devoted to rock classics. Scan a card with the free Hitster app to play its song, then place the card before, after, or between the tracks already on your personal timeline. Flip the card to reveal the release year; a correct placement stays, and the first player to build a ten-card timeline wins. Pro, Expert, and cooperative variants ask for increasing music knowledge, while the bilingual English/French K.I.D. Collection edition can be combined with other Hitster sets.
