A game playset includes at least one movable game piece object for a player to advance during game play. It also includes a game board which has a path provided thereon across which the at least one movable game piece object advances. The game board also including a plurality of components attached to a surface of the game board, and each of the plurality of components is pivotably mounted and has a manual trigger associated therewith.
