ABSTRACT:
A kit of parts for playing a game comprises a board with a first set of spaces to enable playing a game of the kind specified and relating to financial transactions and investments. The board also includes a second type of spaces spread in sequence around the board onto which second respective markers of each player may land in turn under the control of the throw of a dice. The second type of spaces provide various opportunities and liabilities dictated or influenced by "political" factors and events. The presence of "political" spaces add variations that may affect the financial decisions of the players. This makes the game more interesting and, as an educational element, introduces the players to the reality or possibility that "politics" normally influence day-to-day financial transactions.
