ABSTRACT:
An old west mining town is depicted on a map on a game board with two segmented paths, a right path and a left path, each having a plurality of sequential spaces. Tokens are selected by players. The tokens are shaped to represent typical classical old west characters, both male and female. A first die having "right", "left" and "choice" directions in its faces determines which path the tokens are to follow. A second conventional die determines the number of spaces along the paths the tokens are to move. Bonus cards, stock cards and penalty cards are directed to be taken by the individual players as indicated by indicia on the spaces landed on. Payments are made and received by player to and from the bank. When a player's token lands on a space having instructions representing a players death, that player is automatically taken out of the game, whereby the players token is removed from the board and the player's acquired stock cards, bonus cards and money are returned to the bank. The winner acquires the highest value of cash stocks and bonus cards.
