Description

The Game of Life is a classic board game that's all about navigating the ups and downs of, well, life. First published in 1960, it's a simple yet engaging game that's easy to learn and can be played with 2 to 6 players. The goal is to accumulate the most assets by working, earning money, and making smart choices about insurance and investments. The game is designed to mirror real-life events, from going to college to raising a family and retiring. As you spin the wheel and move through the game, you'll encounter various events and challenges that can either help or hinder your progress. While luck plays a big role, you'll still need to make some strategic decisions to come out on top. With a playtime of around 60 minutes, The Game of Life is a fun and entertaining way to spend an evening with friends and family, and its moderate language dependence means you can enjoy it even if you're not fluent in the language.
