Making History
$24.95
A game of truth, perspective, and the stories we choose to believe.
When Briar and Skye’s breakup rocks the school, everyone has a theory — but which version is true? As players gather and trade “facts,” they uncover how perspective, rumor, and bias shape the way we interpret the past. Each round of Making History builds competing narratives, revealing that history is rarely neat…and never complete.
Description
In Making History, players work in small groups to construct hypotheses using “Evidence Cards,” which contain information of varying relevance and reliability. As they trade, merge, and reassess this evidence, players grapple with how personal bias and limited information shape the stories we tell about the past—and how easy it is to mistake narrative for truth.
Educators can use the Making History Curriculum Guide for further classroom inspiration, coming soon.
