ABSTRACT:
A board game includes a game board which includes a predetermined number of start/stop positions, a predetermined number of trick or treat positions, and a single endless path which includes a start/stop path portion adjacent to the start/stop positions and a trick-or-treat path portion adjacent to the trick or treat positions. The endless path defines an interior board region which includes a first capture region, a second capture region, a first safe region, and a second safe region. The endless path includes a sequential array of segments which include capture-free segments interspersed with capture-susceptible segments. A predetermined number of groups of Halloween treat cards are provided which corresponds to the predetermined number of trick or treat positions. A predetermined number of treat-receiving player tokens is provided. A first player-capturing token is associated with the first capture region, and a second player-capturing token is associated with the second capture region. During their respective turns, the first and second capture tokens are enabled to capture a specific treat-receiving player token when the specific treat-receiving player token lands on a capture-susceptible segment of the endless path. A pair of dice is used for determining a number of segments along the endless path that a specific treat-receiving player token advances during its turn.
