About the Game

A 2008 reprint of the 1968 original The Game of Life, Japanese version ("Jinsei Game", literally "Life Game"). Includes the standard game in Japanese as well as an additional game board, the "Junior Stage" board, which lays over top of the standard board and roulette spinner wheel. The Junior Stage variant, designed specifically for children but playable by anyone, features larger, easier to read print (in Japanese) and thematically follows the player from birth through job-hunter stage (where the standard game board begins). The game can be played in three ways: Junior Stage only (30 min approx.), Standard only (60 min approx.), or full version playing straight through from the Junior followed immediately by the Standard stage (90 min approx.).
