What's Next?! is a game of relative history, that is, which man-made objects appeared around the same time as one another. Each round, five objects lie in a row and a sixth object stands apart. In player order, each player marks which of the five objects appeared in time closest to the sixth object. Once all players have chosen, turn over the sixth object and compare the values for all the objects players chose. Whoever first chose the object with the lowest value scores 2 points, and everyone else who chose this object scores 1 point. If everyone chooses the same object, the first player to choose it guesses the number of years that separate the two objects, then everyone else guesses higher or lower to determine who will score 1 point. To end the round, discard the chosen object that earned players points, then add the former sixth object to the row of objects, thus revealing a new sixth object to start another round. Whoever scores 10 points first wins.
