ABSTRACT:
An instructional board game is provided which teaches spiritual principles as disclosed in the Bible to players of all ages. The game is designed to be an interactive multi-player game which includes a board, player tokens, various collectable items, dice, cards and a timer. The board includes a sequential pattern of rectangles which the players would move their tokens in response to a throw of the dice. The sequential pattern generally resembles a tree. The player will transit the board following the sequential pattern with the object of gathering "fruit", living a principled Christian life, avoiding Sin, and responding correctly to questions posed when the player lands the interactive squares. The game simulates a players journey through Christian life, with all joys, trials and tribulations therein, concluding with the timer signal which announces Christ's Second Coming. Christ's Second Coming denotes the end of the game, the player or players who have gathered the most fruit through their game life and have had their names entered in the "Book of Life" satisfy the winning conditions and thus go to Heaven. The instant game may be suitable for electronic gaming as well, that is, a computer game utilizing the method and layout may be provided.
