ABSTRACT:
Game apparatus for simulating school experiences includes a game board having an outer path (the Promotion Path) around the periphery thereof from which a plurality of inner winding paths (School Paths) may be entered and exited. Associated with each School Path is a plurality of Benefit and Hazard Cards from which a player must draw when his playing piece lands on certain designated spaces in the School Paths. Additional spaces in the School Paths permit a player to direct another player to draw from a plurality of Influence Cards. Additional categories of cards (Promotional and Backtrack) are drawn by players at designated times, and movement of player pieces is dictated, in part, by the rolls of the dice. Additional hazards can be positioned by the players.
