ABSTRACT:
A board game simulating various aspects of automobile ownership and operation. The game comprises a board subdivided into several distinct playing paths or areas, including a path extending around the perimeter of the board with spaces representing detriment to the player and spaces representing benefit to the player, and areas or paths spaced inwardly of the perimeter, representing home bases or towns of the players, and with spaces involving detriment and/or benefit to the player. Each inner playing area or town includes a bank at which car payments may be made. A plurality of playing pieces are provided for each player for movement along the playing paths, the pieces preferably representing small, medium and large automobiles. Movement of the playing pieces is controlled by a combination of chance and skill or strategy, and is governed by the use of a pair of multi-colored dice which are cast or rolled to determine which playing piece or pieces are moved, and the extent of movement. Play variation cards corresponding to the various spaces on the board are provided to govern play according to the instructions on the cards. The first player to obtain title to all of his playing pieces and to return to his home base is the winner.
