ABSTRACT:
A board game having an environmental theme named after "Superfund". This board game simulates environmental cleanup efforts of hazardous and other abandoned dump sites facing world-wide industry. Players take on the role of a company's chief executive officer (CEO). Playing the role of CEO, player's will manage a company by making corporate decisions as they relate to the Superfund. These corporate decisions are based on the company's profitability and environmental compliance efforts. The game incorporates elements engaged by industry, government, special interest and the community in regards to environmental cleanup of toxic and other waste dumps left abandoned for decades. Players will deal with the community, Environmental Protection Agency, lawyers and other companies. The Superfund game board contains playing routes in which players move along to reach the end of the fiscal year. Each of the playing squares dictate the playing scenarios which player's will play-out. Players will rely on strategic decisions, chance and/or luck throughout the fiscal year. After all the players have finished the fiscal year and participated in Superfund cleanup, the player with the most money left in their possession, will be declared the winner.
