ABSTRACT:
A game with cards in which the cards are used to build a path for moving a player token in accordance with the roll of a die to reach a goal. The deck of cards includes, in addition to the goal card, a number of girder and ladder path building cards plus obstacle and obstacle-overcoming cards. All of the cards have indicia simulating element of the "DONKEY KONG" Video arcade game. After the initial setup, each player turn consists of drawing a card from a common stack; laying down a card to build a path, place an obstacle, or clear an obstacle; rolling the die; and moving the token toward the "DONKEY KONG" goal. The goal is advanced, however, if a player builds an additional level with the cards.
