ABSTRACT:
Game apparatus is disclosed having a board with marked spaces or areas constituting a path of progression about the board. The preferred embodiment of the game apparatus further includes a medium of payment, such as token money, a first set of cards indicating limits for at least one type of game points, a second set of cards adding and/or subtracting game points, and a third set of cards adding or subtracting from the balance of the monetary notes. Also in the preferred embodiment, a portion of the spaces of the game board path are designated for certain reward/penalty spaces, major game object spaces for directing the players to draw a card from the second set of cards adding or subtracting game points, minor game object spaces for directing a player to draw a card from the third set of cards adding and/or subtracting from the balance of monetary notes, and game completion squares. The preferred embodiment of the game apparatus further includes game markers for each individual player to move around the spaces on the board as determined by chance taking apparatus such as dice. In the preferred embodiment, the objective of the game is for a player to meet a first game object, obtaining game points within the limits set by a card from the first set of cards, and land on the game completion square while simultaneously meeting a second game object, maintaining a proper balance of monetary notes to meet expenses.
